Delaney said he went to Holder’s apartment to talk to him, and eventually convinced him to let two officers inside. Inside, Delaney said Pike was sitting in the closet holding her infant daughter Destinii, who would have turned 3 months old Nov. 22. “She was sitting in the closet, holding the baby,” Delaney said, “but wasn’t saying anything, wasn’t doing anything.” Soon after, family allege police fatally shot and killed both Pike and her infant daughter, leaving the family in mourning after their calls for help. Independence police have refused to say exactly what happened — refusing to even answer basic questions about the identities of the victims or their causes of death — and the only details about what unfolded in that apartment have come from the baby’s family and apartment managers who witnessed the tragedy, raising questions about both what happened and the lack of transparency around it.

According to Greenfield, after police entered the apartment, Pike and Destinii moved from the closet to a bed as police and Holder attempted to take Destinii away from Pike. Greenfield said her brother — who was still inside the apartment at that time — told her that Pike allegedly reached for an object on the nightstand while still holding Destinii, when an officer shot the baby in the head and grazed Pike’s neck with the first shot. “He shot my baby,” Holder exclaimed, according to Greenfield.

What in the actual phuck? Seriously, What. The. Phuck.

You don't want to read the interviews with the father. He had his baby's brains splattered across him.

90 pound crazy lady with a knife and these cops blast through the baby to "protect" themselves?

Ridiculous and pathetic.

Pretty inexcusable. I don't see how that officer doesn't just eat a bullet.
