Also released Saturday were autopsy results for the deputy, Vernon Matthew Williams, 39, which showed he had been shot eight times. He was not wearing a protective vest, but shots hit him in his right leg and behind his right ear, among other places.

I had heard the word "executed" used in one news report. I would agree with all of the above posters the talking head from the SO needs to STFU. As I understand it PD trains to shoot until the subject is no longer a threat. 9 Swat firing at one target=68 hits in a span of what a few seconds vs 1 man firing one gun with 8 hits? Seems reasonable to me they fired less than the criminal did...and offered the chance to give up first.
As a side note where was the vest, in the trunk? For that matter where was the dogs vest? I have several friends with the SO and I bet right now their vests are in the trunk as well while they are out tonight on patrol. One guy told me his was uncomfortable and tight my response was something like I bet your casket will be too.
