Negligence Tort Case Study

I have followed the case in Chicago regarding the shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald, who was shot 16 times by a police officer. The case happened in Chicago on October 20th ,2014. The cases are still being investigated However, Officer Jason Van Dyke has been charged after the video tape was made public on November 25th, 2015. The video was only made public after a freedom of information act request was made. How the request was made; an individual that had knowledge of the tape informed a person that the was acquainted with and knew, that this tape needing to been revealed. The tape existed for well over a year with no in in the public being able to see it, until this request was made.
In this case I can see two of the torts being
I believe that this Tort applies to this case because I do not feel that any reasonable person or officer would have one shot a person that was 10 to 15 feet away walking in another direction. If the first mistake was made to shoot this individual, I sure do not believe that an individual would shot the same person another thirteen times as he lays on the ground from the other 3 bullets that were placed in him. I also can back this up by saying these were at least 12 officers on the spot and Officer Jason Van Dyke was the only officer to shoot. There are 5 elements in which to prove “Negligence Tort” I believe that all 5 can be proven in this case.
I believe that the officer will be convicted, as well he will be sued for a wrongful death case. The family already settled for a few million dollars from the City. I believe once this trial goes to court others will be charged remember, there were several officers at the scene whom all neglected to tell the officer to stop, they also wrote reports that did not support the video tape that eventually
