An officer not even aware that the window of a car that had been sitting there all the time, was shut as it had always been.

Who flinched at the sound of another officer’s tazer.

Who does not belong on that or any other force.

When all the info is in, I suspect that will be the bottom line.

Is all of that experience from your watching a lot of TJ Hooker episodes?

I think she screwed up - perhaps fear, perhaps accident, who knows yet - and it seems there is no way that she won't pay the price. It should be that way for any officer of the state. I also suspect that, had the vic been Caucasian, we would not be seeing this on the news. Good thing or bad thing? Depends, I guess, on your perspective.

I understand that her husband, also a TPD officer, happened to be riding in the helicopter observing the events real time. He must be sick with grief about how all of this went down, and watching what is happening to his wife.

I wonder what effect this will have on long term willingness and/or ability of authorities to confront black males.
