Details from the officer's account of the fatal shooting were revealed on Sunday

The unnamed cop who fired the deadly shot claims to have not known there were three cops guarding the door and to have only seen the crowd advancing

Footage shows the cops guarding the door had no visible shields or riot gear

The officer, who was put on leave pending an investigation, also claims he did not know a back up tactical team was on its was to help clear out the rioters

Footage then shows the cops guarding the door appear to make way for back up

That leaves the door completely unguarded; the officer fires once into the crowd

Babbitt was killed as she tried to climb through a broken window to get into congressional chambers, after breaking into the Capitol on January 6

The officer fires into the crowd?? BS...it was directly at the lady who died.

And if they got into that corridor...where in fact were they...and who else was around...

Name the shooter.

If he’d shot a black we’d know the name by now and he would be suspended. Particularly if the shooter was white.

FWIW, there were several officers standing within a few feet of her at the time she was shot.

Not buying this story

It took them almost 3 weeks to come up with this story, and it stinks.

So, exactly whose arm was it holding the gun with the expensive suit, French cuffs, cufflinks and beaded bracelet?

Rumored to have been a congressman who was heard bragging beforehand to Capital Police that he wanted to bag a Republican.

Methinks they are going to create someone to take the blame.

Many law enforcement actual professionals have been asking - Where were the Capital Police Supervisors?

Well, in this case the shooter was a police Lieutenant.

However, the question still has not been answered.

Lieutenants, Sergeants should have been with the officers, directing, supervising their response to the crowds.

What were those supervisors doing?

Like we’re already have been advised, “He had no choice.” Sounds like they’re declaring it a good shoot. That is the only thing I want to hear from now on with ANY LEO involved shooting.

Correct me if I’m wrong but the video I saw showed no reaction from the other officers, almost like they expected things to end that way.

She had no weapon and he was in a separate room behind the locked doors.

His name is reported to be David Bailey. He was one of the capitol cops on scene to protect Scaliese the day Scaliese was shot on a softball field.

The right is treating this woman the way the left treats Breonna Taylor, and it’s wild to see.

He is lying. Watch the video. He deliberately lay in waiting to shoot an unarmed, defenseless young woman who was stuck in a high window. I read one account that claimed he is a BLM activist.
