The article states the officer was in full uniform at the time.
If that is indeed correct, I'd not have much hope for the fellow. I think the desire stated in the article to send a message to thugs that nobody can shoot a cop and get away with it is a bit much; innocent people should not be used to send a message. However, his innocence is in doubt since apparently his only factor for deciding the officer was another criminal was the tattoos... that's not a reasonable assumption.
I don't know what a good outcome would be, but my guess is that the fellow is likely to do time due to a bad decision made under stress.
