Nowland, a dementia patient, was 5 feet 2 inches tall, weighed 95 pounds
A new report on the death of a 95-year-old woman in Australia after police used a stun gun on her has found that the officers administered "a grossly disproportionate response and excessive use of force."
Clare Nowland died after police shocked her during an encounter at the Yallambee Lodge care facility, where New South Wales officers found her wandering around with her walker while holding two steak knives.
Nowland fell as she convulsed and hit her head, putting her in critical condition before she died.

Australia is becoming a lot like Austria was in 1940’s.
Look at Oz to see where we are headed.
I don’t understand who these cops are, just violent retards.
(5 feet 2 inches tall, weighed 95 pounds)
She was a humongous monster!!
They needed a rocket launcher!! Maybe a tank!
C’mon man!!!
/HUGE sarcasm tag
(wandering around with her walker while holding two steak knives.)
Oh my gosh!!
And nobody thought about calling in F-18s to do a surgical strike??!!
There was no Austria then.
Police are a hierarchy. And the do what the orders from above say.
We saw that in corona.
That only ends when the Regime is on the verge of collapse.
Then the police take off their uniforms and go home.
When the new Regime takes power, they put their uniforms back on, and go arrest whoever the new bosses say.
British journalist Malcolm Muggeridge was in Paris after the Liberation, and described exactly this.
Clearly some people shouldn’t be cops, unless the idea is to specifically get violent personnel.
The Job has long since been feminized. Add in that it attracts and has always attracted to a certain percentage sadistic psychopaths and there you have it.
My mom at 97 was on her way through TSA in Tampa to board a plane. The agent didn’t think she was moving fast enough, so he gave her a shove. Wham! She face-planted.
The problem with Australia is not that it was founded by prisoners but that it was founded by prison guards.
There was, but it disappeared for a time in 1938, when Hitler annexed it. It came back in 1955.

Sheriff deputies shot a woman to death at Costco years ago. Oriental woman with a knife.
Pansies couldn’t just get a couple of shopping carts 🛒🛒 and knock her down.
She maybe would have broken an arm.
Reminds me of Jack Reacher and 4 types that join the military. The 4th type.
I met one 30 years ago. And he wanted to be a police 🚓 sniper, too.
Cue Monty Python’s The Grannies
…and then there’s the ones that want a legal means of killing.
(Something like that)
Exactly
I liked those flicks, first one was better. I’m surprised they didn’t make another.
Child has like 23 Reacher novels.
Australia-who cares?
I don’t know. 95 year olds can be very dangerous and hard to control.
I have a feeling it’s happened here before. Plus, it doesn’t cost anything to have sympathy for a grandma that was essentially murdered.
