A former New York City police officer has been sentenced to 27 years in prison for shooting and wounding her ex-girlfriend and killing the ex-girlfriend’s new love interest.
Former officer Yvonne Wu, 34, was sentenced Wednesday in state court in Brooklyn after pleading guilty in June to manslaughter and attempted murder for shooting Jenny Li and Jamie Liang.
Wu was off duty on Oct. 13, 2021, when she used her NYPD-issue gun to shoot Li, her former girlfriend, and Liang, Li’s new partner. Liang was killed and Li survived with serious injuries.
“The moment was a living nightmare, having to watch a life being taken in front of my eyes and being able to do nothing about it,” Li said at the sentencing, according to the Daily News.
I’m sure there are a few good apples but yeah.
ETA: that was meant to be tongue in cheek. Also if you downvoted me, do you really believe that every single cop is bad?
Yes.
There’s a famous saying about how a few bad apples spoil the bunch. When it’s 97% bad apples, imagine how gross the 3% remaining are.
As well, if those 3% aren’t actively holding the 97% accountable, they are a part of the problem.
That was the meaning of my joke.
Can you explain it again using a different metaphor?
That most are corrupted but there are probably some good ones in there still. What did you understand?
All good, thanks
Oof u forgot the
