She is lying. and so is the police.
I'm telling you what a local news report stated what at least one of the witnesses said. The witness was reported saying they didn't tell their story to the police, but later told it to the lawyer to counteract the Police narrative. Maybe it's the witness lying or mistaken. Seems like the witness and the lawyer have a bias.

The official story makes the most sense. If she went there intentionally to confront him, she would've came up with a less incriminating story like he attacked her and likely would've planted a knife or something.

Maybe this has already been posted in the 97 pages, but officer Guyger had been selected as the sole female officer on an elite squad of 10 officers assigned to high-risk arrests

Guyger started on patrol in the department's southeast division and was later selected as the sole woman on a elite crime response team of about 10 officers who make high-risk arrests in the division's crime hot spots.
This would suggest that she was well-trained and good with things such as shooting, situational awareness, etc. I would have guessed that maybe she was just one of those oblivious types who should never have been a cop in the first place. But evidently not.

It could also mean she is bold and aggressive maybe gung ho. Or that maybe she was also stressed and zoning out on her failed travel home.

This is exactly why I'm so anxious for alcohol/drug test results. Situational awareness diminishes with intoxication of any kind....otherwise nothing makes sense.

Because that's how they generally are taught, right?

Not good on them for not reporting to the police but later running to the lawyer. It calls into question their credibility and motivation.

What?
Or another explanation is they don't trust the police and afraid there would be a cover-up. In which case, I don't blame them for their mistrust of the police.

But that is bias and hurts their credibility. Their claim could be out of anti-police bias and not based on fact.
