Please also consider that police officers (at least here in Texas) operate under a different part of the Use of Force laws than we do. Non-LEO's are operating under Chp 9, subchapters C and D whereas a LEO is under subchapter E. Comparing LEO shootings to Non-LEO shootings is something of an apples/oranges comparison.

I don't know all of the facts in either of the shootings cited by the OP, but my understanding in Waco was she had NO justification for using deadly force. NY/NJ bomber had already shot officers in his attempts to remain at large practically guaranteeing he would be shot at during any other attempts to effect an arrest.
