This isn't great.
QUALIFIED IMMUNITY
lack of training and irresponsibility. however, sbsd is known for several shootings such as these, so just because one sheriff department has many ois such as this one and others, doesn’t mean all cops are pigs and untrained

Why even shoot the car when a hostage is in it?
I kinda hate watching police in action videos because they are always so depressing for so many reasons, including how incompetent police usually are. We see it first hand whenever we have any type. of encounter with them, and it's not to rail at them as it is an incredibly difficult job, it is to highlight the need for better training and recruiting and most importantly of all, better leadership.
why cut the vid?
She's OK?
👍
Israeli style
Dang these cops went “YEEHAW” on that car not caring about the kidnap victim
Wow! Cops kiiled a kidnapped victim? Wtf is wrong….
poor girl…
Ashame she's not black like the od Floyd
The US police is one of the dumbest in the world. They usually are untrained, not skilled, stubborn, cannot even differentiate good bad guys, make stupid decisions, can't read situations well, take disastrous actions, like to escalate situations and complusive liars to cover their evil deeds.
poor little girl 💔💔💔😢😢😢
Is this the usa of America
Absolute morons
These are the cops yall orange leader trump say are all 99.9% good people
Soo sad… I hope justice is served.
Just merely curious Who thought this setup and lack of communication was a good idea. Common sense wasn’t used and innocence was lost
evil
Eye for an eye
The fault is on the officer telling her to move while the live fire was happening. He should have told her to remain on the ground and stay in cover. His lack of judgment and critical thinking of the whole situation as it was happening is deeply flawed. The officer shooting from afar had no idea that he could have slipped out and been running at the officer. A sad situation that could definitely have been handled better. Had it, they would have done fine. One critical failure is that officer who told her to walk into live fire.
The father was shooting. Police was firing back in self defense. She was the victim
