By all accounts, she had no idea who he was until that moment. Its pretty clear from the 9-1-1 call and body cam footage from the responding officers that she was flustered and still trying to process what had just happened. Its not like she just started having casual text conversation with her partner. She was texting him things like Im screwed and I screwed up. Seems like she was slowly processing that her life was about to change forever. It was definitely irresponsible of her to not administer any first aid attempts, but I dont see how that equates to malice, especially in the legal sense. I'm just talking in the general sense, not legal sense. She understood the levels of her crime and had one of two responses: 1. She couldn't handle what she did, which is odd considering she is a police officer and literally has training to deal with this. 2. She texted her partner and realized the severity of what just happened and still just let him bleed out. After shooting him, she realized he was not an intruder and yet still didn't help. Malice through inaction. My opinion of course, not in a legal sense. --- PoW '09 Topic of the Year Co-Winners (Rada and Texy) FFD ... Copied to Clipboard! |
