A Texas woman who's 911 call led to a police shooting is now facing a lawsuit from one of the responding officers.
**SNIP**
Deputy Pullen is now suing the homeowner who called 911 for alleging that she did not adequately warn others of how dangerous the man was. Pullen's attorney says he suffered injuries because of the homeowner's negligence and failure to inform emergency workers of the man's potential for violence.

I know if the case was not dismissed and I was selected to be on the jury, I would hold out for no monetary award but would require the defendant to buy and present a copy of “Being a Deputy for Dummies” in a public forum.

This is crazy. New rules for calling 911?? Did the perp live with the 911 caller? Not that that should make a difference.

This case needs to be thrown out of court so hard that Deputy Dawg bounces on his donut-eating *ss.

If the guy was not potentially violent, why would she have called 911?

Unless you have an attack kitten. Then, our “heroes in blue” will tactical-up, put some Oakleys on top of their shaved heads, and stomp that kitten into harmless mush.

Can police service get worse?

Can police service get worse? Yes, yes it can.
It's stories like these [and no-knock raids] that led me to create this informational brochure on the proper interaction with government agents:

Hey, Marshall, you got immunity when you do your job, now you don't get to sue because you had a bad shift.

Why is anyone surprised by this? Cops are now so risk averse that they shoot dogs because they have the potential to bite them.

did the 911 police dispatcher bother asking her if the perp was dangerous or on drugs? Seems to me it’s the dispatcher’s job to gather the intelligence from the caller who is typically panicked and quite ill prepared to think clearly during an adrenalin charged situation.

I find it difficult to support a cause for liability on failure to inform on someone else’s behavior. If someone called and said “he has a gun” but did not say it was a machine gun, could they be found liable? How about a “stranger person in the neighborhood” and it turns out that person is armed. Does the failure to report the person being armed create liability?
Does not seem reasonable to me.
