The Telegraph 7/1/2023 News The Context of Officer-Involved Shootings: Suspect Weapon Factors in Public Judgment of an OIS Recent research has shown that contextual factors such as police profanity and suspect gender may influence judgments of officer guilt in officer-involved shootings (OISs), even though such factors are tactically irrelevant to the facts of the given OIS. The present study addressed an additional important contextual factor, the influence of suspect weapons on OIS judgment. Ninety adult respondents evaluated an OIS under two conditions: one in which the suspect was armed with a handgun and one in which the suspect brandished a cell phone which was mistakenly identified by the officer as a weapon. Respondents found the officer significantly guiltier in shooting the suspect with the phone than the suspect with the handgun. However, they did not find that the officer should have been able to distinguish the actual weapon from the cell phone. Potential jurors were aware that the gun and the phone may have been indistinguishable to the officer, but this crucial information did not influence their judgment of the officer’s guilt. These results emphasize the importance of understanding internal cognitive disconnections in the evaluation of juridical decisions, especially in the increasingly important realm of the OIS.
