It is sad that this young lady lost her life. However, if the car she was driving was speeding toward the police officers, they needed to take action to protect themselves if nothing else. One question I do have: If the car was speeding TOWARD them, how did she get shot in the back of the head? I realize it's possible for bullets to ricochet and so forth, but this seems mighty strange.

It seems this account is missing what others were stating, that the car she was driving was blocked in by other cars and she rammed one car and backed up and rammed another. It seems she was trying to make a getaway.

Anyway like I stated before, her father the 3 time convicted drug dealer bears the brunt of this tragedy, IMHO.

citing a pending investigation.

We all know how the investigation will go, the results are pre-ordained. The cops will be cleared of any wrong-doing, it will be determined by all witnesses (cops by the way), that proper procedure was used, and then raises bonus and promotions for a job well done. Why waste money on a real investigation? Just give the money the would have spent to investigate to the shooter as a bonus.

The cops are never wrong in DaneWorld,

The father wasn't even in the car. What did the girl do to justify death at the hands of the DEA?

Oh that's right, her father was a drug dealer, she must have been guilty of something.

Of course the JBT's will be geting a two week "vacation" with pay, and probably a medal or two.

Keep cheering the cops, Dane.

Why don't you blame this murder on the gun, it fired it's bullets. The cops were at fault because they didn't use safe bullets. You really are an idiot

Dane,

I respect your views on being anti-drug. They are illegal. You can therefore make a legitimate case for being against drugs because they are illegal.

However...when non-uniformed officers shoot a 14 year old girl in the back of the head, and you blame her father who was not even there, I have to say you live in an interesting world in your head. I guess in your world, no cop ever makes a mistake, and every thing they do is always justified.

Rationalizing - "to attribute (one's thoughts or actions) to rational and creditable motives without analysis of true and especially unconscious motives" or "to provide plausible but untrue reasons for conduct".

If she was, indeed, ramming the cars, I can see why they shot her. In her defense, however, if they were plainclothes cops with unmarked cars, I'm wondering how she would have known they were cops and not someone out to seek revenge on her dad by doing something to her?

This poor child had a drug-dealer dad thru no fault of her own. Having a criminal for a father did not make her a legit target! Poor child!
