Tucson Police Officer Shoots Man In Wheelchair

Keith and Kevin Hodget analyze the Tucson shooting of 62-year-old Ryan Remington, who killed a man in an electric wheelchair after a Walmart altercation. While supporting law enforcement generally, they condemn Remington's lethal force as excessive, citing his prior Marine Corps rejection for mood swings and chaotic video footage where a female officer still commanded him to stop. Despite the victim's criminal history, the hosts argue the shooting was unjustified, highlight potential racial bias in the outcome, and note Remington's subsequent firing, concluding that de-escalation tactics like removing the suspect from his chair were viable alternatives.

Just like, like on his last breath.
Hey, man, let me say something.
I remember when I got the Marine Corps, I wanted to be a police officer.
They keep denying me.
They said psychologically, I couldn't be a police officer.
If I'm not psychologically fit to be a police officer, how the hell did this dude become a police officer?
Yeah, you do have mood swings, man.
People can see that from the show.
I can see you just snapping on somebody.
I said, stop.
Stop it.
Oh, what'd I do?
Hey, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to do that.
I just lost my cool.
Hey, hey, Kevin.
Hey, hey, let's get serious on this.
Yeah, yeah, we should.
I mean, you go through a lot of, you got to jump through a whole lot of hoops to become a cop.
They test you psychologically.
They check your credit.
They look at your work history.
Y'all need to add something else to that damn dad hoop jumping y'all got to become a cop.
Y'all need to start doing IQ tests.
Well, not only that, IQ tests.
They need to go like through official boot camp and throw all kinds of stressors at them, all kinds of stress at them, and see how they react.
Yeah.
Yeah, we got to let you go, man.
You'd have killed a whole family if you went to that house.
You crazy as hell, man.
All right, so I'm going to show y'all the video hand.
Let me tell you what happened first.
This old man, I think he's like 6'2 ⁇ .
He's in an electric wheel.
Tell him to show him the video, man.
Nah, I'm just giving the foundation.
Just the foundation.
Don't give him too much.
I'm not going to give him too much.
That's it.
He's 62.
He's shoplifting.
Yeah, he's in Walmart.
He got a tool kit, right?
You know, you got the door greeter.
Those are expensive, man.
Tool kits.
Yeah, and the door greeter is saying, let me see a receipt.
So instead of producing a receipt, a receipt, he pulls out a knife, saying, here's your receipt to the door greeter.
Oh, it's loss prevention.
Yeah, it's loss prevention.
Undercover security.
We used to do that job.
Yeah, we should do that job.
So they call the cops, and this is what happened.
Got his knife in his other hand.
Stop going to the store, sir.
Stop now.
You need to stop.
What was that last bullet for?
Like, Jesus.
I think.
Okay, this is from inside the store.
He dropped his cigarettes.
Those look like marlboroughs.
Dropped his cell phone, too.
I think he dropped it.
You saw he landed on his head?
Yeah, he's gone, man.
I think he's already done.
Yeah, I wouldn't be hanging.
I'd be trying to administer first aid or something.
Like, stop the bleeding.
How the hell are you going to stop bleeding with nine bullet holes in your back?
I mean, Tupac made it.
He got shot up like eight times.
Tupac made it.
This man can make it.
I mean, you have to go into life-saving mode.
Okay, I don't get it.
Pow, That didn't make sense to me.
What was that last bullet for?
And when the dude started shooting, the female officer still giving commands.
Shouldn't you let her finish her commands?
Did you see how, okay, the female officer came running up?
She was like, yes, sir, don't move it.
Then he started shooting.
Her gun went down.
Like, you could tell she was looking at him like, what the hell is she doing?
And then after he shot the guy, y'all see how he fell out there, Charlie.
Yeah, he's dead.
He's dead.
He landed on top of his head.
So he gets down like he's in a damn rodeo and he starts damn roping the damn calf up.
That's one of the craziest videos I ever seen.
That's yeah.
I mean, you putting handcuffs on him?
Yeah.
Me, I wouldn't have shot him.
I'd have probably went up to the wheelchair and dumped his ass out of that or something.
Because that guy, the guy in the wheelchair, hear me out now.
That guy in the wheelchair, he's he's a he's not a good person.
I mean, he's a very bad person.
He's a burglary, attempted first murder.
I mean, the guy is.
Attempted first murder.
It's attempted first-degree murder.
You know what the hell I'm saying?
Yeah, he did some time in prison.
Yeah, he's not a good guy.
I mean, who pulls a knife on the damn for a damn toolbox?
So he's not a good guy.
Yeah, I would have just threw him out of the wheelchair, really.
And I think before.
I would have just went up to, hey, stop, stop.
I got to push him by the wheelchair.
Do that or throw some damn spike strips in front of the damn wheelchair.
Something.
Something.
You didn't have to take his life.
Like, I mean, it's not.
Shut up.
You just talk to him.
That's why he didn't become police officer.
That's why he didn't become police officer.
He got a temper problem.
Yeah, it came out that damn.
You be snapping your ass bipolar, man.
Shut up, let me do some dope.
Yeah, I'm over and talking to you.
I'm at a call and talking to a woman.
Shut up, I'm trying to do some dope.
I'm doing an investigation.
Shut up, bitch.
My jumped hard enough as it is.
You over there whap, gap in your damn mouth.
All right, yo, let's get serious on this.
Where was we at, man?
So let me let me say this.
Let me say this.
You don't say it then.
Okay, I'm in the state.
Got a knife, and I'm sure the reason why the police officer felt like he had to shoot him is because he's going into another store.
He's going into a Lowe's and it's full of people.
He's got a bunch of people.
You're gonna get him another toolbox, huh?
He didn't like it when he got it walmart.
No cheap ass toolbox.
I'm gonna go to Lowe's.
Hey, man.
Hey.
Hey, under the law, can I do some talking?
Hey, to make this worse, the cop's name is Ryan Remington.
I'm like, he's hating after a gun.
Your last name Remington, and you're out here shooting damn.
That's like having a name named Tim Revolver.
Tim Magnum.
Tim 48.
Last name is Remington.
I mean, I'm not going to lose any sleep over the guy because he put himself in position.
He's career.
He tried to kill somebody.
He's not a good guy, and he's pulling knives on people.
I mean, he put himself.
He's a smart ass, too.
This is your receipt.
Everybody hates a smart ass.
And before the shooting happened, the cop, that's another vendor.
He says the guy put a knife on him, too.
Yeah.
But you know, under the law, if you feel like you threaten, I mean, textbook case, God's got a knife, you can shoot him.
But if you add wheelchair, 62 years old, add that to damn wheelchair is he's not like doing this.
He's got a damn, he's got a Pac-Man joystick, and he's pushing that bitch.
I mean, this dude is feeble.
Did you really have to put the clip in his ass?
I'm telling you, all you had to do is dump his ass out of the chair like that.
Yeah, and if you're going to shoot him, you shooting him in the back.
Yeah.
I think it's weird, too.
The cop, the female cop is giving commands and he's just shooting.
That's that's that's that just doesn't even look right.
Yeah, that's that's only one police officer shot too.
So yeah, he was fired.
I mean, when you shoot, you hear this: bow, I mean, you just put like this is towards, this is, he's facing a store.
If he misses somebody in that damn.
Well, he was this close.
How are you going to miss?
Well, you know.
He was this close.
You don't know how good a shot is.
Well, Kevin, he was this close.
So you the wheelchair.
And it's spreading the money.
Turn around.
You the wheelchair.
Scoot over, motherfucker.
He this close.
Bow, bow, bow.
He wasn't that damn damn close.
He had contact burns on him.
No, he was that damn close.
You didn't see the pull up the video game.
He was about three feet away, man.
Yeah.
Pull up here.
Let me see the video again.
Nobody else was in danger unless the bullet went through him.
Yeah, the bullet could have gone through him.
Are we looking at this?
Yeah, let's look at it.
Man.
That police officer is crazy.
Can you man, that dude is a threat to society?
If you see a little small kid pointing a fake gun, that cop's going to light his ass up.
Yeah.
Man, you can't be that trigger happy.
I mean, I support the blue and all, but damn, you a damn straight-up tyrant.
That dude's tired of practicing.
He was tired of practicing.
He's tired of practicing with that damn gun.
He would have used it.
He's been on job four years.
But I was a security guard.
Like, just some people, power corrupts the hell out of them.
Yeah.
Like this dude.
That's just human nature.
You could be, you don't have to be necessarily a bad person for power to corrupt you.
You could be one of the nicest persons in the world.
Soon as you give people power, money, it corrupts you.
Yeah, he got fired.
Rightfully so.
I'm like, fire.
Shit, this ass be locked up.
I mean, what he did.
You know what?
South Park family guy, Ricky Morty.
Y'all need to make this an episode.
I need to see this.
I mean, gee, that look like...
That looks like a comedy sketch.
Don't look.
If the guy in the wheelchair had a gun, I could see you shooting him like that.
How big was the knife?
Was it a damn Rambo knife?
I don't know.
I bet you had a little apple knife, man.
When he peeled apples.
Like daddy used to have.
Yeah, daddy.
Daddy walked around with a pocket knife and he just peeled apples and shit.
Dad was good as hell with that knife.
Daddy, take that damn knife, spin it.
Yeah, he said one stroke, and then he'll slice a piece open.
Daddy was good with that knife, man.
Yeah, do I think this is justified?
Hell no.
It can't be.
You got to be Ray Charles if you think this shit's.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't mean laugh.
This is a tragic situation.
But like I said, that guy is a piece of shit in that wheelchair.
Yeah.
I mean, that's why.
I mean, you look.
I'm not laughing at his death.
I'm laughing during the video.
Whenever somebody dies, it is horrible.
Yeah.
But this shit, man.
This shit is like...
Now let's do that again.
I'm going to be the female cop.
I'm getting female commands.
All right.
You just come up to start shooting.
Hey, sir, you need to stop.
What's the last bullet for?
I mean, I can see why some people want to defund the police when they see this shit.
Yeah, this is crazy.
This scares a lot of people, especially people that's black and brown and people of color.
When they see stuff like this, it scares the hell out of them.
Yeah, so shut up.
If you're going to shoot an elderly white man like this, what you going to do to my black ass?
So that's why I was trying to say, man, thank God this dude was not black.
This is going to be swept under the rug in about a week.
Nobody cares about an old white man.
You stole the damn toolbox and pull the knife over down.
Nobody gives a shit.
Yeah.
Yeah, this will be over in a couple days.
