How much force is too much? Law enforcement officials, in a nationally-broadcast effort to drove suspected murder and ex-LAPD officer Christopher Dorner out of a Bear Lake-area cabin, unleashed hundreds of rounds, tore down walls and may have sparked the fire that ultimately engulfed the residence.

With the state on full-alert for the entire manhunt, going to far as to employ the use of drones, did the ends, should the body found in the cabin’s wreckage be identified as Dorner’s, justify the means?
