Whatever happened to a taser. She was no threat. That incident is disturbing. Talking about a mental issue. The officer is the one who had the mental issue as far as I'm concerned. There is no way that idiot passed a psych evaluation.
-
The expert has not viewed the whole video. The officer ORDERED her to remove the pot from the stove, THAT IS THE ONLY reason she entered the kitchen area.
-
Let's not just skip over the fact that he was at least 15 feet away from her. And YES he could have backed away if he really thought she might throw it. But she wasn't showing any threatening intent whatsoever, and those cops had no reason to be in her house following her around anyway!
-
he was so nasty and dismissive to her the entire time. he wasn't in any danger at all
-
If you need to be "TRAINED" on how to treat anyone like a human being, then maybe you're not human.
-
They set her up. He told her to go to the stove.
-
An important missed point is that the police officer instructed her to remove the pot from the stove.
-
Lady Worst Mistake Calling The Cops.
-
This absolutely sucks. She was ordered to go to the kitchen and take the water bottle off the stove. The name of Jesus is not a threat to shoot someone twice in the head and continue to curse her even after being dead. It’s a gruesome homicide and blatant disregard for human life and display of hatred.
-
There was no need for them to even be in her house.
-
He was Demonic she decern it and he only proved what she was experiencing and saw.This video is sickening!!!
-
Imagine, if she hadn't picked up the phone to call for help, she would be alive right now. A simple decision that you think is right, leads to your last day on earth. Totally unjustifiable.
-
They shouldn’t have went in her home in the first place.. I never heard the police even ask for any entrance.. and if the girl wanted to boil a pot of water in home, thats her business.
-
That Devil heard the name Jesus and lost it!
-
I think he had no idea what ' i rebuke...' took it as a threat followed it with threat and then shot her
-
I agree with expert but this wasn't a training issue.
-
The cops had concluded their investigation so why did they enter her home?
-
The beast who killed Ms.Massey was an army veteran. I don't know if he was in combat. However, these Vets have PTSD and overreact to certain situations. I think the police departments should stop hiring Vets with PTSD. The beast shot first before trying to assess the situation. RIP Ms. Massey
-
No ma'am I'll take it a step further. Are police trained to recognize the humanity of black people in underprivileged environments.
-
These people. Completely clueless. She was asked to move the pot of the stove. The cop who asked reacted with fear. The lady found that funny do the other cop shot her in the head. After shooting her in the head he yells DROP THE FUCKING POT!
