George Floyd (III): Defending Child Shooters Edition

[Kaslo]

They didn't announce who they were, just busted the door open with a door ram. Breeona's boyfriend shot once into the ground to scare what he thought was intruders and that spooked the cops and they opened fire. She was shot 5 times, bullet holes were everywhere including the next door neighbor.

The crazy thing is this scenario where intruders bust into your home and you open fire on them is a 2nd amendment lovers wet dream.

If they were white, but they weren't

[Tymon]

The verdict on Taylor is expected to come down in about 90 minutes.

[NynJa]

Was the cop shot though? Sorry I dont know the finer details of the case, I understand about the shady warrant and all but the cops were at the correct location on the warrant? And the boyfriend fired at them? I dont know how at fault the cop really is in this case, which is probably why hell get a slap on the wrist and the city will burn down.

In a letter to Mr Hankison published by the Courier-Journal, Louisville Police interim chief Robert Schroeder wrote that his conduct was "a shock to the conscience" that "demands your termination".

Mr Hankison is accused of "blindly" firing 10 rounds into Ms Taylor's apartment, displaying "an extreme indifference to the value of human life".

"I am alarmed and stunned you used deadly force in this fashion," Mr Schroeder added.

"The result of your action seriously impedes the department's goal of providing the citizens of our city with the most professional law enforcement agency possible. I cannot tolerate this type of conduct by any member of the Louisville Metro Police Department."

Makes more sense now thanks, still somewhat an unfortunate series of events but if they didnt announce then like you said I see no issue with the boyfriends actions. Sounds like less of an accident now and more like recklessness I also didn't realize how willy nilly the officers shots were fired.

You reckon the cops should walk or not sure?

[Day]

Officers that fired their weapons seems like should serve some time. I doubt they will get anything close to what anyone wants though. I also dont know all the fine details about how much we legally allow officers to get away with, and I dont mean like corruption, I mean we allow them a certain amount of legal leeway in these matters is my understanding. This whole no knock warrant stuff seems like bullshit though and the people at fault for that warrant share some blame too.

[archibaldcrane]

Whether they announced or not is disputed, you'll never believe who said what

[NynJa]

The warrant was shady beyond no-knock. i dont remember all the details.

[Kaslo]

The warrant was shady beyond no-knock. i dont remember all the details.

The police's stated justification was that the Ex-Boyfriend who apparently had some drug dealings was mailing stuff there, even though the Postmaster said there was no evidence of that

[arus2001]

Well, I imagine most everyone but the cops are going to be disappointed with this ruling.

[Xno Kappa]

1 officer indicted on criminal charges.

[arus2001]

3 wanton endangerment charges said to be Class D, mainly for stray bullets, which makes it possible he does no time at all from what I'm hearing.

Edited for correct charge/reason.

[Lucavi]

Whoever signed off on the warrant should be arrested. They put everyone in that situation.

You sign a no-knock warrant in a country that has the legal right to not only own firearms, but to use those firearms to defend their home; you're literally sending people to their death on either side.

[Tymon]

Apparently max of 5 yrs, 15k bail.

That officer will not see one day of jail.

[Xno Kappa]

Town is going to burn down tonight.

[Karbuncle]

NIMBY tho amirite

[NynJa]

How fucking wild do you have to be to fire 10 rounds and 3 (or more) wind up in 3 different apartments? Four since you have to include Breonna Taylor's apt.
