Not always . I have seen so many false allegations of that when they know the person is a cop. How did I determine it was a lie? I asked the so called victim to describe the gun. They are often wrong about the color and type . I have heard everything from a Dirty Harry to a silver gun to black gun and vica-versa. They have many different service guns and off duty guns to choose from. And we ask where did they draw the gun from too. Sometimes they are right where the officer’s holster is , sometimes they are wrong but they can’t claim the gun was switched otherwise they would saw it in most of the situations I had to deal with.Typical NYPD officer. Stupid accent, anger issues.
