Fucking near anything's possible at this point given the complete lack of details but I refuse to believe some bullshit article that she was basically shot in the face while simply talking to a cop. Bet you it ends up she went crazy and was trying to grab the driver cop's gun, just like a certain "gentle giant" from Missouri a while back...

I will make a GUESS as to how it went down.

Woman in PJs approaches car.

Pussy cop in passenger seat draws weapon "for their own safety".

While the woman is talking to the driver cop, the passenger cop has a negligent discharge, striking the woman.

From reports, bullet may have even gone thru door.

No bodycams were on because they are normally activated when cops exit the vehicle.

Penalty if my guess is true.......... hopefully, involuntary manslaughter.

Never point a weapon at anything you don't intend to kill.

This is not going to end well. I guarantee you that the cop's fucked this one up. I really am not buying that she was somehow a threat or tried to pull a gun and they were forced to shoot her. I'm going out on a limb, and guessing it was an accidental discharge of some kind.

Wait?

Where's the ARFcom that insists that the person who got shot was a thug and that the cop was doing his duty protecting and serving?

Okay, you are correct. We do NOT yet know why he did not use the equipment provided. Hopefully we get more information soon. That said, one of the reasons we give officers this equipment is to allow more objective oversight of use of force incidents. Officers who fail to use this equipment should not receive any of the normal protections their profession traditionally offers.

No, we don't know he "failed to use the equipment he was provided"... unless its policy for them to continually have the camera on AT ALL TIMES...    

Some agencies have policies stating when the officers are the activate the cameras.  They don't continually run them 8 hrs straight.  They may not
automatically have them on while sitting in their patrol car.  Think it may be possible something transpired so quickly it didn't occur to him that he
should take time to turn on a camera..

"If the article is correct"... If I remember correctly, article states "sources" stated the passenger officer shot her through the drivers door,
while she was talking to the driver (officer)??

I'll wait for more info

Let's not jump to conclusions.  I'm not convinced it's a bogus shoot yet. Surely there's some kind of evidence here isn't there?

Not only is it a crime for me to drive without insurance, it is a crime for me to drive without PROOF of having insurance.
Not only is it a crime for me to drive without a drivers license, it is a crime for me to drive without said license in my possession.
I could go on and on.

In my opinion, it should be a crime for an officer who has been issued a body cam to not have it turned on and working.

There will ALWAYS be doubt in my mind that it was erased to cover up something.

As long as we're tossing stuff out, let's say:
since she was apparently able to float through the house, she was floating
in the alley. The officer thought she was some ghost demon and fired. 
Good shoot.

I would love to see you remember to turn those fucking things on when a life-or-death situation is unraveling in front of your eyes.

And that's coming from someone who loved having one (and an in-car camera) because inevitably, it always showed that exactly what I said happened, actually happened.

Your lack of logical thought is the reason police administrators don't want body cameras. Heck, city council members don't want them.

Body cameras are only as good as the technology allows.

Most departments have very very specific body camera policies.

It's extremely cost prohibitive to have body cameras running for the entirety of officers shifts. The data is too large and there is too much of it to be managed without having multiple fulltime employees dedicated to sorting it, servers dedicated to hosting it, and an entire office dedicated to redacting/dispersing it under freedom of information act requests.

Most policies I have seen say that the officers should activate the body cameras when taking enforcement action. Other policies I've seen say any interaction with the public. Most if not all body cameras I've tried have to be manually activated so there will always be that element of human or mechanical error.

Most probable scenario:

1: Cop in passenger seat was startled
2: drew WITHOUT INDENDING ON PULLING THE TRIGGER
3: accidentally DID PULL THE TRIGGER on a probably Glock 17 5.5lb trigger


I'm also curious the neighborhood, this sounds like a inner city? Probably more reason to be suspicious in that area.

Also wouldn't be shocked if it was minority cops.

Its in Minneapolis, but as far as Minneapolis goes its a pretty good area and damn near in Edina (upscale suburb)
It borders the southwest corner of Lake Hariet if you want to pull up the area on streetview

I read the story at the link and all of the comments here, still don't have a clue as to what happened. I don't want to speculate because there are no details of what occurred and I think to speculate or hypothesize only makes matters more confusing. Until the Minneapolis police department releases it's information on this we just don't know what happened.
