Special treatment for only one. You or I would be facing a charge of 2nd degree murder. |

Murder requires premeditation. If this officer actually did enter a wrong apartment, as the story suggests, and shot the resident under the stated circumstances, then how was she supposed to have premeditated this? It clearly was a UNJUSTIFIED SHOOTING, but a D.A. overcharging the officer might result in a jury acquittal if the charge can't be proved ---- and it can't be proved. Prison time? Absolutly.
Cases like this are why laws should be written and enforced by clear headed people, not relatives of the deceased, or social justice warriors who are only out to avenge imagined wrongs. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
