US Capitol cop who shot dead Ashli Babbitt is EXONERATED in internal investigation of the shooting
UK Daily Mail ^ | 08/20/2021 | CHRISTOPHER EBERHART

The Capitol Police officer who fatally shot Ashli Babbitt during the January 6 Capitol riot has been exonerated following an internal investigation, according to reports.

Babbitt, 35, was the only person killed on January 6 when the officer - who hasn't been named - opened fire at a mob of Trump supporters as they stormed through the Rotunda.

The commander of the Capitol Police's Office of Personal Responsibility says 'no further action will be taken in this matter,' according to a memo obtained by NBC News.

In April, the Department of Justice said it wouldn't be filing charges against the officer, so the conclusion of the internal probe ends the official investigation.

Babbitt's family told The Washington Examiner earlier this month that they plan on filing a $10million wrongful death lawsuit, claiming a plainclothes officer didn't issue a verbal command.

Nobody killed the protestors who occupied Wisconsin’s capitol building in 2011.

The election protestors in 2021 didn’t expect to be murdered when entering our nation’s capitol.

But not in a court of law. Justice for Ashli! No Justice. No Peace. And all that schiff!

Has he heard from Heaven’s bar yet?

Now, that doesn’t mean by any stretch that he is going to Heaven, it just means that there will be a day when the books will be opened and the depth of his destruction will be revealed.

That Judge has not sounded a verdict yet . . .

Sadly, a lot of good people will be standing next to him for rejecting God’s only way to Heaven:

“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

So the Capital Police investigated the Capital Police, and found that the Capital Police did nothing wrong.

Good stuff.

Exonerated for killing an unarmed reveler. Those doing the exonerating are now equally culpable.

Take them to civil court. Get me on the jury. Get any of the 60% like me on the jury.

So the coward was afraid a 110 lb unarmed woman (with 4 cops right behind her). What poor judgement.

He may h ave been exonerated by his corrupt cohorts, but some day he will have to face the ultimate Judge who is no so easily fooled.

Kyle Rittenhouse was actually attacked when he shot people.

But he’s going on trial.

The tax-paying citizens of the United States who pay his salary, which includes his job benefits and retirement, beg to differ.

Americans watched him plan, set up, and
WAIT for her to be positioned.
THAT IS 1st degree MURDER.
And given thousands watched it - it is TREASON
for them all in the coverup.

So now Capital Police can commit murder with no consequences. Hope there is a special place in hell waiting for that POS LEO!

An excellent case can be made that the killer, probably Lt. Michael Byrd, murdered Ashli Babbitt.

I doubt that he would be convicted by a D.C. jury, but he should be tried.

The Capitol Police think they are above the law. So far, no one has tried hard enough to prove them wrong.

I'm glad that Trump is still paying attention to this.

He shot a person with verifiable right wing beliefs. There can be no guilt in that.
