There's a lot of language in that video. She talks like she belongs on an episode of Jerry Springer.

She had a small amount of drugs and a scale (drug paraphernalia) I’m not sure why, when she reportedly fired a gun, they did not perform a pat down. She had her gun hidden under the cloth tucked into her waist band. A pat down would have found it much sooner, and may have prevented the shooting altogether. Also the one officer kept a grip on his notepad, even after she drew her gun.LDP wrote: Mon Jul 27, 2020 1:29 pmShe looks the part too.Paladin wrote: Mon Jul 27, 2020 9:39 am There's a lot of language in that video.

What were they arresting her for? I missed it. Her choice of wardrobe?
But seriously, how stupid are people to pull a gun on LEOs? Do they not understand what would happen next?
Glad the innocent bystander did not get hit, he was right behind her when one officer opened fire at her. Either the officer is a great shot or he just got lucky and missed him too. It could have been ugly.
As a former LEO, that was my question also. That was SOP when I was on the job.dlh wrote: Mon Jul 27, 2020 4:54 pm I am not a police officer so cannot pass judgment but I have a question---shouldn't the responding officers have immediately put her in cuffs and done a pat-down for their own safety especially getting a call about a "woman with a gun?" They can always remove the cuffs after a pat-down if she is "clean."
Appreciate comments from members who are police officers.
That was not our policy nor my procedure. As an officer, you have to talk to a lot of people and putting cuffs on everyone you interview would not go over well. I would have patted her down first, since it was a "woman with a gun call," but I would not have put her in cuffs.dlh wrote: Mon Jul 27, 2020 4:54 pm I am not a police officer so cannot pass judgment but I have a question---shouldn't the responding officers have immediately put her in cuffs and done a pat-down for their own safety especially getting a call about a "woman with a gun?"
