This ‘officer’ needs to be *under* the jail. His own bodycam recording shows that he didn’t announce himself, he didn’t knock on the door open for ventilation, nothing. He treated it like a burglary in progress and skulked around the side and back of the house like a burglar (or worse). He was a peace officer in Texas; he should have known what most people would do in this situation - and he did absolutely everything to arouse the suspicions of the homeowner. And then he shot her for doing what anyone here would.
Before approaching a house whose occupants may be frightened about intruders on their property, I’m thinking officers should announce their presence by turning on their red/blue lights and giving their siren a two second bleep.
Anyone disagree?
Agreed
My youngest kid has more sense than that
