Authorities in New Mexico will not seek charges against three police officers involved in a fatal shooting after arriving at the wrong house last year.

Officers in the town of Farmington fired dozens of shots and killed Robert Dotson, 52, because he appeared at the door of his home holding a gun.

At the time, the officers were responding to a domestic violence call from a house across the street.

The Dotson family filed a lawsuit against the department last year.

According to a complaint filed by the family in court, police arrived at the Dotson residence late on 5 April, 2023 and “parked down the street and did not have their lights on”.

When Mr Dotson opened his front door holding a weapon, police immediately opened fire, striking him 12 times. Another 19 shots were fired at his wife Kimberly, who was unharmed during the incident. Police later said she opened fire on officers with a pistol.

    No I’m reading your words and the clear intent behind them. But I can show that I’m reading your brain. As I said you still have the stench of Reddit on you and that’s your sudden change. It has nothing to do with what I’ve said it has to do with you seeing the downvotes and that triggered your ‘must change opinio instantly’ response.

    And even before that I’m just fucking done with people like you. Instigators. You saw my comment, clearly knew what it was really about, but had to jump in and try to turn it into something else, turn me into the bad guy, just so you could be the bright shiny example of humanity.

    When, instead, you’re nothing but a negative presence when you behave like this.

      I am on kbin, and as of now I see zero downvotes for my and your posts. And yes, I found hilarious that you were upset about this situation. Sorry that you do not understand my humor. And don’t go ballistic, sometimes you just have to trust people when they tell you about their intentions.

              I was planning on eating you, but you just talked yourself out of it. I’m on a strict righteous anger diet.

          It is unfortunate that you are so close minded and refuse to hear me. I did not discuss any morals. It was all in your mind that I did.

            We both know what you were doing, and we both know what you’re doing with that comment. Still desperately trying to prove how enlightened you are. How better are you are.

            You’re an instigator piece of shit and on top of that you’re an absolute fucking pussy because you back down the split second somebody calls you on your shit.

            Fucking pathetic.

              You ability read my mind continue to amaze me. Do you really believe that I did not understand that you were upset not because women was not shot but because of police incompetence? Why would you even assume that? How anyone without brain damage would interpret your post like that???
