Well obviously she represented a significant threat to the officer as she drove away.
I know a guy who’s 48 year old sister has been in prison three times for battery. We’re talking seriously dangerous woman. She sliced most of the scalp of a woman off her head (required over 50 stitches) in a “bar fight” and “****ed up” a couple of males on the other occasions. But she kept getting out after only two of ten years each time. She’s out now and I steer clear of this woman, especially when I’m not armed.
Why mention all the drama? Sometimes a person is just dangerous. And doing what this woman did with her car (assuming that is what happened) makes her potentially dangerous in the future. For all we know that officer may have saved the lives of others in the future. She should have stopped and stayed stopped. It’s on her.
There are dangerous people. There are stupid people who do dangerous stuff. There are people who make poor decisions.
She chose poorly when she decided to run. IMO that is not worth the death penalty delivered summarily by law enforcement.
