Keep looking to excuse the scummy racist murderer !

If he panicked and it was accidental he would have been charged with, at most, 'vehicular manslaughter' (i believe that's the term they use in the US).
He wasn't. He's was charged with second degree murder and attempting to flee the scene.

The ''baseball bat'' thing is his main 'evidence' yet it's clearly a jacket and the driver had already accelerated down the street initially by this point (which can be seenin the other viewpoint videos). That's why the person swings his jacket at the car in an attempt to slow him down.
