Our hearts go out to folks who make a mistake that leads to death or injury. Not intending to do harm doesn't alleviate liability, nor does ignorance. I agree that the officer who allegedly had the ND should be treated exactly as any other citizen would be. If the DA won't file a case for a no injury ND for the cop, then the DA shouldn't file a case on anyone else for their no injury ND. I can say that I was standing by when a police officer in Larimer county wrote a ticket for "Discharging a firearm within city limits" to an idiot in my neighborhood shooting squirrels with his BB gun! Granted the poaching was an ND but I seriously doubt the situation would have gone so easily for the idiot had it been a handgun.
