Minneapolis Police Chief Janeé Harteau announced that she is resigning in the wake of the officer-involved shooting of an Australian bride-to-be.

"[L]ast Saturday’s tragedy, as well as some other recent incidents, have caused me to engage in deep reflection," Harteau said in part in a statement posted on the police department's Facebook page.

She continued: "The recent incidents do not reflect the training and procedures we’ve developed as a Department. Despite the MPD’s many accomplishments under my leadership over these years and my love for the City, I have to put the communities we serve first. I’ve decided I am willing to step aside to let a fresh set of leadership eyes see what more can be done for the MPD to be the very best it can be."

Now get rid of the Mayor and the entire PC-idiot culture!

[cardinal4]

One step ahead of a grand jury, I’ll bet..

[Grimmy]

If criminal charges ever do come down on all this, the mayor should be included for hiring that SJW virtue signal of a police chief.

LEO answer to the civil political authority. The civil political authority must be held accountable too.

[MileHi]

So it was straight up murder.

The resignation was requested (demanded) by the Mayor. Now who gets rid of the Mayor and other PC-fools there???

Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges said in a statement that she asked for Harteau's resignation.

"I've lost confidence in the Chief’s ability to lead us further — and from the many conversations I've had with people around our city, especially this week, it is clear that she has lost the confidence of the people of Minneapolis as well," Hodges said. “In conversation with the Chief today, she and I agreed that she would step aside to make way for new leadership. I asked Chief Harteau for her resignation, she tendered it, and I have accepted it.”

“Got startled” = MULTIPLE shots...?

Wow, that’s VERY hard to swallow.

[House Atreides]

I guess the chief neglected to implement a policy that police officers shouldn’t engage in Islamic Jihad against non-Muslims during duty hours.

[dragnet2]

This is getting interesting...

[Captain Compassion]

I don’t know about this. The lady sheriff seemed fairly up front to me. I expect that politics are deeply involved.

[Rennes Templar]

In other words, she doesn’t like muzzie cops on the force.

[OwenKellogg]

Lickity split

[gaijin]

"UNCLEAN..!"

She was COMPLETELY uncovered..!

BOTH shoulders could be seen..!

[Lurkinanloomin]

Another officer shot two dogs in their own yard just before this muslim cop killed the Australian lady.

New leadership is needed.

All the way up to Governor of Minnesota.

In the past, women were put into positions such as police chief or sheriff only when men were away fighting a war. There was a reason for that.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The affirmative-actioned chief can’t take heat for the consequences of the affirmative action policies she implemented.

[aquila48]

The police chief and "her husband"

PC kills

[Enchante]

Mayor needed a quick scapegoat before calls for the Mayor’s resignation become loud.

It remains to be seen how many of the citizens of Minneapolis/Minnesota will be awakened by this incident. Based upon Libtard myopia, my guess will be not many.

[xzins]

Doesn’t look good. Sonething more awful than the shooting itself must be destined to come to light.

[wally_bert]

Better looking than many of same sort.
