MELBOURNE, Australia (NBC News) - An Australian man who recorded and taunted four dead and dying police officers was sentenced to 10 months in prison Wednesday.
Police officers and relatives are outraged at the sentence.
Forty-two-year-old Richard Pusey had been pulled over for speeding when a truck slammed into the officers.
Pusey began recording the scene describing it as "beautiful," "justice," and "amazing."
When a bystander asked him to help, he refused and continued to record.
His lawyer said he suffered from a personality disorder.
He left the accident scene and officers discovered the video when he was arrested the next day.
