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.

Off topic, but what does, "after the white (lower case) Fort Worth officer shot the 28-year-old Black (upper case) woman", have to do with the story?

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?
