why run from the LEO? seriously? how many officers are killed by perps attempting to flee? it doesn't really matter since they're not people or
have families.

I feel horrible for this woman's father, and for this young lady, but, for her own actions, we would not be having this discussion. I have to place the blame on the woman, not the officer who was trying to perform his job.

The cop should have been drug tested too.
Running from a threat is a perfectly normal reaction and this lazy dirtbag cop proved to be more than threat.

So? Are you saying that doing drugs justifies LE brutality?

I hope this goes to a jury trial. If I'm on the jury, this cop is toast.

There is no way a woman in handcuffs can escape. The cop should never have tasered her.

Nobody said she SHOULD have run. I doubt many women in handcuffs have killed cops.....

But for the cop's over the top aggressive actions, she would be alive and well.

We live in a country where one is innocent until proven guilty.

A while after she hit the concrete she sat up and he told her to lay down. I wonder if that made it worse.
