If a new police officer - say in their first week on the job - were to kill someone in the line of duty (A clean kill with witnesses to say the officer was doing their job and protecting someone else, not some shady middle of the night shooting). Is it like they show on TV where there's an inquiry and the officer has to turn over their gun/badge for a while, or would they still be an active officer on their patrol?
The scenario is that someone is being threatened with a knife. The officer draws her weapon and tells the man to put the knife down. He doesn't, so she repeats herself. The man with the knife charges both his intended victim and the officer in question, so the officer fires. The shot kills the guy with the knife.
Would she still be able to go out on patrol the next day? Or would she be at a desk or on leave?
