“I didnt want to look, I am not a voyeur of slayings”
Your decision is wise. Such things take their toll. I once had to watch an evidence tape of a male prostitute demonstrating all that he was capable of performing. If I could get those sullied bits of my brain cut out I would. Homicides, torture etc. are even worse.
That is part of the problem here, too. Police are exposed to the worst behavior of the species day after day. It is not an edifying or uplifting experience. IMO, most city street cops are simmering at some level of emotional trauma most of the time, on duty or off.
Ugly incident, and it won’t end well for anyone.
Best post on the thread so far.
