There are certainly some police shootings where they "get carried away" and shoot far more rounds than needed. Some of those killed had it coming and some didn't. Sometimes the cops skate, other times they are fired or even jailed. Not a good correlation between offing the undeserving and punishment. It seems to depend on the politics of the region and the prosecutor. Being this was in Texas I feel confident they will find No Bill.

Commonly find cops who continue firing even after they hit the ground. Their statement, "I thought they were still armed and dangerous." That's it. This is standard practice. They are all taught to say it. Where able, they do as they are told.
