Yes, if a crime you are committing results in a police death of a person then you are liable

In the US at least, not Canada
- Love that people doing crimes are held to higher standards than cops
- Well of course he should be charged for burglary and theft. He did commit those crimes, but I don't think he should be charged with murder. He didn't shoot the gun, the cop did. I'm not necessarily saying the cop should be charged with murder though.
- Maybe the pig tamers need to step up their fucking game?
