Never raise a weapon toward a cop, ever. And stop when he says stop.

She was deprived of her due-process rights.

A full trial should have been conducted on the spot. Judge, bench, jury box, bailiffs, court reporter, everything.

**”I want to know why he did her like that,” Ella Sweatt said. “He didn’t have to.”**

Well, he did ax her her to put down the ax.

Seriously, didn’t he have a Taser?

Ramius Yea I know it’s a ax but would it count as a sword?

I wonder if it was suicide by cop?

Looks like a clean shoot to me. She was far too aggressive with that axe to be ignored or physically restrained.

“I want to know why she kept coming at him like that.” (Normal Person) said. “She didn’t have to.”

This was done all wrong.

Single shot between the eyes would have saved bullet.

"I want to know why he did her like that," Ella Sweatt said. "He didn't have to."

It was all a misunderstanding. She just wanted to "axe" him a question. /sarc

He was within his rights to shoot her. But I think a quick baton blow to the face would have worked just as well. That looks like one of those replica axes sold to fantasy memorabilia collectors - probably wasn’t even sharp.

The dainty perp had started doing that little hoppity hop motion that immediately precedes an attack. LEO had retreated 10 feet while shouting at the perp before shooting. No doubt this was the correct thing to do - actually the LEO backed into a police cruiser and thats when he finally unloaded.

That video should be useful for future discussions about justification of deadly force.

"She wasn't a bad person," [her mother] said.
Sweatt’s daughter ... says the 40-second police video has been edited and doesn’t tell the full story.

The denial of reality is just staggering.
