    They need to introduce a law which states that once a police officer is fired he cannot be rehired at another department. Also, two dui’s and he’s a police officer? WTH.
  • @Codisrocks
    How was that man allowed to carry a gun let alone be a cop? Doesn't anyone see a problem with that? A national database that doesn't allow violent drunks to be cops would be nice.
  • @GoPlayInTheRoad
    That was cold blooded murder, he needs to spend the rest of his life in prison
  • @dmando8687
    This is so sad, this cop needs to go to jail for the rest of his life.
  • @tirtraz3174
    This made me sick to my stomach! Crying! Why!?! She did nothing to instigate a negative responses. I am glad he was arrested immediately and charged. There was no threat! 😢
  • @45newsutah
    That cop was an assassin. What ever, or, who is involved, will never be known.

    A police officer hired by a department. With a badge and gun & goes to a beautiful young woman’s place. Who is the mother of two young children. And is shot by the police officer, in the head, face WTF. And this moron was booted out of the military 🤔🤔. Then applied for a job as a police officer in other departments, but something happened. Yea I see a big red flag here. WTF This police department has officers that go out and kill innocent people. There is a huge problem people. Horrible plain and simple, for the family and friends, children prays. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼& one more thing get the best dam lawyer and sue big time for those kids. Good luck 👍🏼.
  • If those men feared for their lives against that small woman, they shouldn't be wearing a badge! They're the one's who told her to take the hot water off of the stove! Then they shot her for it? What in the name of Jesus scared them? She didn't have weapons! She didn't rush them! She stood there with her hands up and let them end her life! I almost vomited! It was murder! Then the cop lied! Said she had something in her hand! He knew she did! He's the one who told her to remove the water from the burner! Both of those officers were wrong! The other officer should have stopped him! They were both wrong! 🤬

    Her deadly crime? She said, "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus." So the cop shot her in the head.

    and candade owen is calling this wicket act a mistake what a heatless woman 😮
  • @alyssam.7606
    This is absolutely horrible and so sad. This is why union jobs aren’t that great because he has been through 4 other police departments which it’s harder to be fired under unions. He should have never been allowed back.
  • @stealthgod13
    You people in these comments are very hateful. Its sad to be you if you cant differentiate injustice.
  • @itswagon
    We must stop realizing the hiring of law enforcement after the horrible facts. The character of the law envorcer must be determined prior to giving them a badge and a gun.
