This is my town.

Correct me if I’m wrong but unless you apply the alec baldwin “the gun went of on it’s own” rule, she had to have pulled the trigger.

...she had to have pulled the trigger.

Absolutely. She's incompetent but there's also the issue of certain handguns not having a manual safety. Glocks in particular don't.

It doesn't matter if you "keep your finger off the trigger" or "get a good holster" when someone else is handling the firearm.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office will pay out handsomely because this inept officer should never have been disarming a driver for a routine traffic stop. They'll settle out of court because their lawyers don't want to admit the officers at the scene violated protocol, violated the driver's rights, and at least this officer had insufficient training in disarming someone.

Absolutely CORRECT!

Finger on trigger.

But she was removing the gun for everybody’s “safety”

That’s a privilege, not a rule.

Maybe she was a DEI hire and didn't know the purpose of the trigger.
