Input...she was an 83 yr old lady who had reported somebody being on her property or in her house. It was night and it was dark. Her sister lived a couple of houses away and she had called her sister and told her and the sister said come over to my house to get away from whatever the threat was. So on her way, out the back door of her house, to her sister’s house, and while holding a handgun in her hand apparently for protection from whomever was around there, she was approached by police and shot dead. We don’t know the exact details. The police claim they ordered her to put down her gun and she refused, continuing to point it in their direction, so they killed her. But we weren’t there and don’t know. But even if she did that, too bad the cops didn’t understand that the home resident was in fear for her safety and was fleeing her home to get away from an intruder. But they treated her like the criminal and if true she didn’t respond to their commands, and they killed her, talk about a wrong reaction to a natural defensive action she took.
