In January 2015, a man named Okeefe was killed by a police officer after a short chase. Okeefe had been fleeing from the police and several shots were fired. The police officer was wearing a video camera, which recorded the incident. Several cities now require police officers to wear such cameras to increase transparency and accountability of law enforcement. Observers have noticed that both, police officers and citizens, tend to behave better when a camera is recording the incident. As documents of "the truth," police videos can be somewhat ambiguous. For example, the footage described above does not actually show Okeefe fleeing or shooting at Officer Fisher. One day before that incident, however, prosecutors did decide to pursue murder charges against two other Albuquerque police
officers whose killing of a homeless man was captured by a helmet camera. What information, on which the police officer involved in this incident based his decision on, was not shown in the video? A. The shooting of the suspect B. The suspect fleeing and shooting at the officer C. The officer yelling "Show me your hands" D. The officer shooting eight times
