[The people have spoken]

The moment she opened the door to an apartment that wasn’t her own, she wasn’t operating as a police officer clothed with the authority of the law. She was instead a criminal.

No, criminality requires intent. She made a mistake. Murder will be hard to prove.

“No, criminality requires intent. She made a mistake.”

Not exactly. She intentionally pulled the trigger with the intent to kill or cause serious bodily harm.

Her “mistake” keeps her from lethal injection, not prison.

If what I've read about this incident is,in fact,the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth I believe that she's guilty of something like "negligent homicide".

One does not "intend" to be negligent.

It's kinda like ILLary and Comey.He said that there was no intent on her part so no charges will be filed.

“No, criminality requires intent. She made a mistake. Murder will be hard to prove.”

She intended to pull the trigger while pointing her gun at an unarmed man. If I, as a CCW guy, walked into someone else’s apartment and shot an unarmed man minding his own business in his own apartment, it would be considered murder. You cannot legally shoot someone in most states unless you have a reasonable belief your life is in danger, or that you or others are in danger of severe injury or harm.

So...what was “the threat”? She INTENDED to kill an unarmed man who posed no threat. How is that not murder?

BTW: David French is a pathetic weenie. Just want to add that since I rarely agree with him on anything.
