I watched the video. Anyone commenting without watching the video should STFU.

Righteous shoot.

The officer must have missed the day of training where they were taught to shoot knives out of suspects hands. /s

FOUR TIMES? SO WHAT? If the decision is made to take lethal action, it is to KILL the person not wound them. They don’t shoot to wound. “CENTER MASS” where all the vitals are.

They don’t shoot them in the foot!

Anyone reading/watching this story is biased. You have information that the officers did not have. They have to make life and death decisions in a split second.

The officer wasn’t defending themselves, they were “protecting” the boyfriend from an out of control woman with a yuge knife about to stab him. She had already stated that she was about to stab him. She had him in a corner, pulling him toward her, with the knife perfectly positioned to stab him.

Was the officer supposed to just let her stab him?

In “hindsight”... THERE IS NO SUCH THING!

Officers have to act/react instantly in life and death situations. They rely on their training to do the right thing at the right time. Second guessing can get you or someone else KILLED!

-She told the police she was going to kill her husband
-She was standing with her hand on her husband and a large knife in her hand.

That sounds like a deadly situation.
