How does a member of the Mexican drug cartel magically turn into an "unarmed" man?

“Agents Compean and Ramos were prosecuted by my office because they committed a number of serious crimes. They shot 15 times at an unarmed man who was running away from them and posed no threat. They lied about what happened, covered up the shooting, conspired to
destroy evidence and then proceeded to write up and file a false report."

Amazing...
