the officer will be fired...she will go through hell

I bet she feels terrible...a horrible situation

for the rest of us, we have to talk about Daunte's path in life...

that's the real issue at hand.




That is the absolute truth

the MESSAGE that should be shouted loud and clear by every honest and honorable person would be to the public - "STOP DOING THIS!!! YOU ARE DOING IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO YOUR CULTURE!!!!! ---- RAISE YOU KIDS TO NOT DO THIS!!!! ----- SHAPE THE HELL UP!!!!!!!"

But again, as with Chauvin's situation, it comes down to departmental training.


What departmental training says that, once you have a person in custody, and you have to check for a pulse, the person is in custody is still a threat to you, therefore, you can continue to use force against a person that HAVE NO PULSE.

No department training teaches that. Chauvin was being the racist POS he is, therefore, the chickens has come home to roost for him.

It’s kind of idiocracy all the way around. She should be able to tell a taser from a Glock, yet the taser is made with the same shape and grip angle as a semi-automatic pistol precisely to resemble a pistol in that regard so that the same skills and muscle memory used for the pistol will come into play with the taser. The taser is worn on the non dominant hand side and the pistol is worn on the dominant hand side.

In high stress situations people revert to training. They’re not going to notice things like color or slightly different appearance of the taser. And if the training for the pistol was more dominant than the taser, that’s what she was going to do and there was nothing in the shape of the taser to make her stop and think. Also, people ALWAYS go to the dominant hand during stress.

Two things I would suggest. One, that a taser never be used to stop a fleeing suspect. And complete redesign of tasers to something that in no way whatsoever resembles a pistol.

Just make it up as you go along.

The FACT is three cops jumped on Floyd and simultaneously employed prone compression restraint while a fourth attended. Chauvin was one of the three. They had bodycams. They all knew they were being filmed. Yet they persisted. Not the type behavior normally accompanying deliberately rogue actions.

The department claims such actions are not policy or training. There is huge likelihood, given the identical officer response on scene, that the department is lying.

Agreed.

However, an obvious and deadly mistake was made. It wasn’t an intentional summary execution, just ended up being one.

Now the policeman was fired (without the usual procedures that would be involved) and she will be subject to criminal proceeding which will likely be negligent homicide or involuntary manslaughter.

There will never be any intent found.
