Presumably in fear for his life, one of the troopers fired his Department-issued .40 caliber pistol, fatally wounding the woman. Weird..
It sounds like the woman was observed moving around in the house for some time. I wonder how the trooper was caught by surprise in a position where he was not behind cover?

People who are suicidal are that way because they are mentally ill. It is hard on the cop, but you often can’t blame the person for it.
The person who called the police is now going to be plagued with nightmares - you are told to call 911 in such emergencies, but you don’t expect to end up with your family member getting shot. You think you are reaching our properly for help. It’s horrid for everyone.

How many mags did this well trained cop use.

There's not enough to go in this article to make a judgement. However, if I were the one who did this, I'd expect to be taken down: “refused repeated orders to surrender and pointing the weapon in the direction of police on the scene.”
Stupidity, emotional problems, and even mental illness are no excuse for disobeying reasonable legitimate authority and endangering others.
