Not fear. Not adrenaline. They were just stupid and happened to have a collective bad aim day.
That makes far more sense than the possibility that thousands of years of human evolution created a fight or flight mechanism that these folks couldn't shake off in the span of 4 seconds.
I have seen the light...

You don't seem to get it or understand the law. What sucks for the cops is this is on video. The man was clearly down and they continued to shoot excessively. Adrenline is not a legal justification to continue shooting someone who is no longer posing a threat.
