WTH!!!?? This guy needs to spend the rest of his life in jail. How do we get such incompetent people on the police force? ARGH!!!!!!!
Cop shoots woman in head because he thought she was going to toss boiling water at him?
- Thread starter Colonoscopy

Humans like to try to make connections for things they can't explain.
Guys needs to see inside of a cell.
Im happy departments are utilizing or requiring body cams. This lady certainly didn’t deserve to die and hopefully justice will prevail

Neutering Police Unions and removing qualified immunity might be the only way to fix policing in the country.
"Nice older lady"?!, she was 36, does your mom know you are playing on the internet?
Cop should have just gone and pulled the pot himself. With a little forethought, he would have realized he just asked her to pick up a potential weapon. She didn't seem to be advancing or threatening at all. Good luck in your murder trial sir.

It’s pretty hard to get a cop fired, even for fellow cops. There is a strong culture of fidelity with cops and it isn’t worth risking being ostracized for speaking out. It’s a lot easier for the good ones to quit.
What might be the easiest way to get rid of bad cops would be to remove their qualified immunity and abolish police unions. Make them carry malpractice insurance like doctors and when their premiums get too high, they are forced out.
I’d like to see wages for police go up, but standards and responsibility go up a lot more.
Watch the news.
And the obituaries.
This thread might help you understand. The video is here to verify.
Any other questions? Ignorance is not bliss.
Saw this on the news last night. Completely inexplicable why that woman was shot. Sure, her “rebuke” was weird, but hardly threatening. I think that cop is headed for incarceration and hopefully for a long time.
For Life.
I think patience was probably the only tool needed in this case.
That dude is going to prison for the next 40 years or so, and should. WTF is wrong with some people. Shot at the ****ing pot if you really thought you were in danger, which you weren't. Crazy f**k.
Looks like the most recent PD has multiple lawsuits inbound. With that record, the PD should have KNOWN he was a bad cop.
I think the job of being a cop needs to be more attractive. Attract more good cops, create a market place where other stations don't keep recycling guys like this because theyre desperate for staff.
I was watching on my phone so didn’t get a good view of her. The way she acted seemed like an older lady to me. Either way, she didn’t seem like she had any intent to throw the water on the police officer, and even if she had tried, didn’t seem strong enough, and he could have easily dodged any attempted water throw. Ever try to throw a large container of water at someone that they see coming? Very little if any of the water actually hits them."Nice older lady"?!, she was 36, does your mom know you are playing on the internet?

i'm not so confident. and that's sad.
There’s no defense for what he did there. He’s going to prison and rightfully so.
He's a cop. There's your defect. She's black. He's a redneck white.
The worst part is that he wouldn't even render aid, while the other cops wanted to. He's a disgusting piece of shit and hope he gets his just desserts in prison.
I agree. Make it 4 years college or training. Pay them very well. Train them on non-violent resolution. But if you lose a job for bad acts, you can’t go to next jurisdiction. I’m in.
At that range if you are worried about her throwing water on you, back up a few feet and just wait to see what happens. She doesn't seem to have the strength to get the water very far in the first place.
A lot of other options here other than shoot first ask questions later.
Why do some people insist on thinking in overly simplistic terms on stuff like this?
That guy obviously had lots of problems. Maybe he is what you say. But most cops aren't like this. You can have policing issues and it can be that most cops aren't like this.
Ok I have to ask, what situation have you been in where you thought you had to try to throw a large container of water at someone?
Water fights with kids or others in the yard over the years. Someone (sometimes an adult) always try to get a bucket of water or something bigger than a water balloon to get someone with, and it never hits anyone, if the intended target sees it coming. Water never seems to hit the intended victim with the accuracy and velocity of a bullet.
I feel like there is a multitude of @VodkaSam being on the receiving end of a bukake jokes here, Im just to lazy to fully form the joke.

Whoever hired that piece of shit in Springfield should also be fired. Today if not already.
The way that the two officers started communicating with each other right after the shooting is bizarre to see.
I'm also continually shocked at the language some police use during confrontations. I'm probably naive, but it seems like screaming f-bombs at someone is rarely going to have a positive impact on the situation.
What other public facing professions would that kind of unprofessionalism ever be tolerated?

When he went outside and another cop asked him if he was alright, he replied "F---ing bitch is crazy."
Like I said, hang him.
Maybe it's time for the broken windows theory of law enforcement to be implemented by law enforcement management on their own people?
Easier said than done.
Being a cop has to be one of the most difficult jobs in this country.
The burden on proof is on them and their acts, not the general public they kill. Ask them the same questions.
Man, shite got weird real fast in that video. One second, they were having a normal conversation even laughing about the hot, steaming pot of water, the next second, she, out of nowhere she says to him "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus". Then repeats it and this cop flips the F out.
She does duck down to the floor and out of sight with the pot of water still in her hands but that cop could have retreated back a step or two and been in no harm. With the obscured view of the counter in place, it is possible she was preparing to throw the pot of water at him, but, as I previously stated, the cop could have simple taken a few steps back and been in no danger.
It's like he was so enraged when she brought Jesus name into the conversation that he just flipped out.
The other cop, Deputy #1 whose camera I was watching, you could tell he was like "WTF did you just do?" While the shooter was making all sorts of excuses about not taking a pot of boiling water to the head, justifying his actions for the body camera he knew was rolling.

Yeah... he did all that while knowing the body cam was going. How unhinged do you have to be to do that?
Roid rage? (or the like)
They make it more difficult because stuff like this goes public almost instantly.
One exception was the incompetent Uvalde police force where officials fought like hell to keep the video from going public.
The reason some people are surprised by all these disgusting actions is we had no security cameras and body cams previously.
Likely this stuff has been occurring for decades and law enforcement got away with it.
