    Article doesn’t go into what happens, so I’ll summarize:

    Victim thinks there might be a prowler at her home, she calls tha cops at 1 am. Murder Cop and his partner get there, are let inside and are several feet from victim. Water starts to over boil a pot on the stove, victim asks the cops if its okay to move pot. One of the cops says yes. Victim moves the pot to counter, sets it down. Murder cop suddenly pulls gun, screams at the victim to put her hands up, she does. Victim panics, starts to drop to the floor with her hands still up, murder cop shoots her in the face.

    Partner of murder cop rushes to provide aid, murder cop tells him not to. Partner of murder cop ignores this, calls ambulance and provides aid. Murder cop stands around, does not provide any aid. Victim dies.

      What in the holy fucking shit. Is there any indication that the cop was high? That is such a crazy story.

      Edit: body camera footage being released Monday. I find stuff like that very difficult to look at but might make an exception in this instance.
