Incorrect again.
She called 911 due to the fact she thought she previously heard someone breaking in, a common mistake especially for the elderly.
She's on the phone with 911, the LEO was there nearly immediately. Now the LEO is attempting to force entry!
It seems obvious she had no idea the LEO got their so quick, due to the fact the 911 operator did not keep her on the phone. Since the responding LEO was their so quick, did he even advise dispatch he was on scene?
This appears as a total lack of communication and or not following their own procedures, between the LEO and 911.
Ya can't blame the old lady, she thinks someone was breaking in, and in fact, it appears a LEO was forcing entry, to a home that had no sign of forced entry, and he in fact was there almost immediately when the call was initially made.
Well, we're both speculating on that. I think it's more likely that she put the phone down, you're on the side that the 911 operator hung up.
I like my odds better, but we don't KNOW what happened (thanks to crappy reporting by a typical MSM ape).
So we'll have to agree to disagree.
No reason not to release it.
BTW, I never once suggested that. Read back.
I said they're trained to keep the caller on the phone until a unit arrives.
Where's the 911 tape?
Except that it would embarrass a 92 year old lady that's not going to likely repeat this incident (let's hope), who's not going to be prosecuted.
They're just not going to do that since most folks see this as a human interest story, unlike what we on FR view it as.

A LEO nearly gets his head blow off, leaving all all kinds of questions regarding protocol and procedure, as to why this happened...
But they don't want to release the 911 call because they don't want to embarrass her?
No sale.

Yet there here is the story, complete with her pic, complete with comments and quotes from the LEO etc, but now suddenly they don't want to embarrass her by putting out the 911 tape?
That's funny!
But again, no sale.
He and the other two - wait til you hear from them, oy - are using this story of an unfortunate and frightened widow 92 years of age ninety-two who used her late husband’s gun for probably the first and definitely the last time to fight their 2nd ammendment anti LE fight for them.
It is pathetic.
The story is obvious and you tell it succincltly while stating not to know all the facts - true.
