Bodycam: Pregnant woman accused of shoplifting shot by police | CNN
www.cnn.com
The Blendon Township, Ohio police department released bodycam footage of an officer-involved shooting that took the life of Ta’Kiya Young. Young was accused of shoplifting by an employee and tried to leave the scene. CNN’s Miguel Marquez reports.

Somehow this is the only country on earth where this seems to happen. When talking about shootings involving guns, okay, fine, the US is certainly an outlier there, but every country has cars and police.

This is murder.

      If she was trying to run him over, she did a really shitty job. The cop put himself in front of the vehicle and she turned her steering wheel the wrong direction and didn’t slam the accelerator. I think if anything the cop was trying to be run over, not the other way around.

        Its not about “doing a good job” or not. She had the intent. Its all it takes for an officer or even a person to defend themselfs

          You’re not getting it. He wasn’t trying to defend himself, he was intentionally putting himself in a place of danger to justify murder in the name of defense.

            Amazing how cops are put in that position. Putting yourself intentionally in a place of danger to do your job. We have to thank every single one of them

          She clearly did not have intent. The cop just placed himself in front of the car. If he wasn’t there she still would have driven forward. She didn’t drive forward because he was there. It wasn’t intent to run him over, it was intent to flee. The cop had intent to be in the cars path though.

          I thought it wasn’t about her shoplifting? Make up your mind.

          Oh, I’m sorry. It’s not about any of that, is it? It’s just about whatever you need to excuse a government agent murdering an American citizen without a proper trial by jury.

          Do us all a favor and never pretend you respect the United States Constitution ever again.

          When did that become a death sentence without a judge and jury?

      You can clearly see her turn the wheel away from the officer, and she doesn’t slam on the gas, she just accelerates at a normal speed. Not that that matters to you, you just love jacking off to pigs murdering people and don’t want to question for one second how shoplifting and resisting arrest is supposed to justify murder
