The victim should own Seattle after she’s done.

“The victim should own Seattle after she’s done.”

I am not too sure of that. Incredibly, some states require that there be a ‘special relationship” between the victim and the ‘officer’. That is, something the ‘officer’ did or said that makes the victim think that the ‘officer’ will help or protect her.

Ignoring an assault right in front of the guard might not support civil liability.

Oh, there’s already standing court precedent that the police have no liability if they fail to protect you.

More and more it looks like it’s time to hit the big ol’ red reset switch on this machine.
