Maybe if her dad had not been ARMED with a rifle and announced his daughter was in there it would of been safer..
Maybe if the fool had told his daughter to stay in her room rather than allowing her to hang out at the scene of a shoot-out about to explode (WTF?! What kind of an idiot is this?), she'd still be alive. Ya think?
And where's the mother in this scenario? At work? Divorced and living elsewhere? Why haven't we heard anything about her reaction to her husband (or ex) putting her daughter in harm's way?

The father owns this homicide for being irresponsible. Instead of protecting his daughter which is the job of a parent he put her at risk. Shame on him.
Utter stupidity to suggest innocent daughter killed is much better.
Hell no.
Cops are there to protect innocent life by risking their life if needed.
Oh, I guess you are saying it is better for a deadbeat guy's daughter to be alive than it is for a police officer's daughter to lose her dad because the deadbeat guy shot him in the face and killed him.
In the arm???
He aimed the arm??
No.
He must have guessed the guy is standing behind the rifle and shot. How do you miss a guy's body from point blank???
Only if you are blind or couldn't see through the door.
The brain's natural tendency is to focus on any perceived threat, so when you pull the trigger you hit where you are focusing (aiming), which, in this case, is the arm holding the firearm that is pointing at you.
Drawing down and firing at a subject who is pointing a firearm at you is not the same as standing on line at the range and putting holes in a paper target that is not a threat.

Daughter has nothing to do with dad's action.
Yes, I think a good officer would have actually protected the girl with his life if the situation was something different like if the dad was trying to hurt the daughter.
This one was unintentional if the cop didn't see the girl there but if he saw and still shot in that direction, that's bad.
Did you see the visuals in the link? He was at the living room window, ready to shoot anyone approaching the front door. Bedrooms usually are in a different part of the house, usually at the opposite end.

Doesn't matter.
Now we can say that but there are several instances where bystander or someone in a different home got shot.
Stray bullets don't ask for direction and change course in the middle.
When I was in Arlington, one of my friends' apartment had a bullet come through from across the creek, went through 3 walls and out the other side.
Or they could serve eviction notices in better ways than this. Disgusting.
