I never did see the Police Chief in MPD in action. But if she was anywhere near as incompetent as the Mayor that fired her, that would account for hiring the hair trigger Somali. Damn! A whole bunch of black guys there at the meeting, doing their best to negate the last election for Mayor, but in this case, they could well be right! They were just talking instead of burning the dang town down, so in the wake of what went down, they do deserve a little more consideration in what they have to say.
Have finally read about this and WOW! This is sketchy as fuck. I was an MP in the Army for 5 years and it doesn't matter how much training you go thru......it's still a person with a gun in their hands. People no different than anybody else on here. How in the hell are they going to get to the bottom of this?
He did an interview. Shot her because she startled them. She walked up right after they heard fireworks go off. He saw her at the window and shot her.
How is that the police chief or mayor's fault is what I'm wondering. The dude shouldn't have been a cop but who knew?
Well im guessing its the chiefs fault because the officer already had several open complaints and should have been on leave. Can't see how it would be the mayors fault.
Is that the proper procedure to put him on leave? Was it entirely up to her? I haven't read much about this because it is just so out there.
I don't know if that is proper procedure. That is the only reason I could come up why the chief would be responsible. That and maybe she knew he was a loose canon.
Because the police chief is ultimately responsible for what goes on in his/her department. But I can't help wondering, if this had not been a white woman from a country that is an ally, would the chief had resigned? And cops are supposed to be trained. A trained person does not shoot to kill because there is a loud noise somewhere.
