Since reporting Tuesday night on the shooting death of Stephon Clark at the hands of the Sacramento Police Department, I have gotten many of the same responses from people both on Twitter and in the comments section on The Root.

Why didn’t he just comply? Why was he running from the police? Why was he holding his phone like a gun?

Even after videos were posted Wednesday night, people still seem to be confused about the events that occurred on Sunday, March 18, so I thought it would be a good idea to clear up at least some of the misconceptions that are floating around out there.
