Cowardly Cop
Two NYPD cops are involved in a shooting. A camera captures the incident as one officer bears the brunt of the confrontation while his partner flees the scene. Was this a discrepancy in training?

Incredibly, the cowardly officer was said to have no prior incidents of concern.

Realistically, I don't think d there is any real way to tell how anyone may react in a shooting situation, without actually putting them in such a situtation. It certainly can't be determined from an employment interview.
How do you weed out cowards during the hiring process? What questions do you ask?... Mr. Smith, before we give you this job, please tell me, are you a coward? Will you run away when people start shooting at you? Will you roll over on your partner during an IA investigation?
