I think that NYT article said that taser/pistol mixups have happened about 9 times since 2009 and led to aqcuital for the officer about 50% of the time and jail for the others.

I think you might’ve missed that it refers to an article from 2012, so that’s 9 mixups that were prosecuted between 2009 and 2012.

I think the point is that there's a 50% success rate of lying that you accidentally used a gun instead of a taser.
