Seen some other videos of the incident. She blocked the road with her vehicle and officers were trying to remove her from her SUV. They were positioned around the vehicle as they normally would be. She tried to bolt with an officer right in front of her and creating a dangerous situation with the other officers. She would have drug them trying to get away. Several officers were injured from what I understand.
I never look at these incidents in a vacuum, I see the context from 30,000 ft. These officers are being trained to leap onto or in front of vehicles and regularly use it as cause to kill. Plenty of cameras caught that license plate. She would have been picked up eventually.
She died because the media has been allowed to force feed a narrative, because every institution that mattered, failed her by brainwashing her. I want those people dragged out of bed and publicly flogged
I am just saying objectively what I saw based upon the several videos of the incident that were from various different camera angles. I did not see an officer jump in front of that vehicle. In fact he was standing in a position that was in front of the driver's side headlight. He wasn't too close but he also wasn't far. It appeared that she hit the accelerator and closed the gap quickly. Two other officers were on the driver's side of the vehicle trying to remove her when she decided to take off. The situation was tense and these officers are always being attacked and assailed by these agitators. They were trying to remove themselves from the area and were being blocked by this vehicle.
I do not speculate about motives of anyone because we just don't know. That being said, I would not be surprised, just from watching the videos, that she panicked when it appeared that she was going to be taken into custody for obstruction. People do that all the time. The door of the vehicle was partially opened when she decided to take off. I did not see any actions by those officers to put themselves deliberately into an unsafe situation in the performance of their duties. Others may have different opinions about that. Yes, there are some bad cops out there. But I also do not paint all people in law enforcement with a broad brush because of the bad apples.
I have had some law enforcement training in the past and we were never trained to "leap onto or in front of vehicles." You are making an assumption here that this is what occurred. Until there is other information to give credence to your hypothesis I will reserve judgment until that time. But I cannot come to that conclusion based upon what I saw. I tend to follow Occam's Razor and do not rush into thinking everything is some kind of conspiracy; however, that possibility is always on the table. It is just too early to go there. The bottom line is that this driver put herself in danger and the outcome was unfortunate for everyone involved.
I think I’m reserving judgment as well. What I don’t like to see is everyone jumping on the bandwagon of praising police. (Former Marine btw) It’s a stark reminder which way a jury will instinctively lean were I in this scenario. Facts be damned, convicting cops is an indictment of the system and agreements civilization is built on. And for many that is a frightening concept. They would sooner convict an innocent and let a bad cop off than challenge their matrix.
Or maybe I’ve been watching too many “DeleteLawz” YouTube shorts lately. I’m blue-line fatigued.
I always try and put myself in the victims shoes. That woman, while misguided and certainly on the wrong side of the law was a mother. And I highly doubt she set out that day to kill anyone. I hate the whole situation man. God rest her Soul.
I agree with everything thing you said. It was unfortunate, especially for the woman. I am also sure the agent involved is also going through his own type of pain haven taken someone's life. I knew LE officers that were so distraught over a shooting, especially involving a young teenager, that they packed it in and left. As a Marine you may have had the same experience or been close to those that have. Thank you for your service. No such thing as a former Marine. LOL
All I was doing was reporting on what I saw without making any other judgements, trying to be as objective as I could. The spin created with incidents like this on both sides of that "blue line" always end up blurring the truth. When things like this break I always get as much objective data as I can early on before spin narratives are created. May God's peace and love be upon everyone involved in this tragedy. Have a blessed day fren.
