Dallas Police Officer goes home to the wrong apartment, kills man inside !!

^^ We can discuss the "What IFs " But the comments are based on what "she said" In a affidavit.
Yes the ballistics should be very telling . Cops carry guns (even in the UK now)

If he had a gun on him it would have been the same tragedy but both may have been shot.

I think the autopsy will reveal the truth of what actually happened.

Now she's claiming she didn't knock
The door was ajar

Yep. Both would probably be laughing it off and made a new friend.

Not sure why they are protesting outside a police station though. Is this a protest against dumb people?

Ugh huh

To ALL of you Trump supporters and Nike/Colin bashers, this is the real reason why CK started to kneel in the first place. I hope you all can see past yourselves for a moment to understand this goes on ALL the time. TBH, i'm really tired of these stories. Kid was a model citizen, College grad, never had an issue with the law, and they have to state those facts to make you feel like he's worthy of not being painted as a possible criminal. I'm sorry, there are some good cops out there but most of them definitely have a chip on their soldier. I've witnessed it first hand. myself and my son and it is getting really old. It's almost 2019. Let's be honest. As a country, WTF are we doing?

Police haven't been this safe at any time in the past 100+ years. Yet they arrogantly run around causing almost as many problems as they solve with their overly violent tendencies.

I used to think it was just a few bad apples giving the vast majority of good officers a black eye and a bad name. But more and more I'm deciding that's not true. There are a lot more bad apples that I heretofore realized. Maybe even close to a majority. And even those that aren't actively trigger happy or malevolent are guilty of coddling the bad cops and protecting them. And when they do that, they become almost as bad as the bad cops. Until they clean their own fouled nest, a pox on all of them.

Cops in Baltimore carried toy guns around to plant on unarmed people

Not just in Baltimore. It is a technique as old as the hills. It’s called a “throw down gun” or a “drop gun.” Departments have banned the carrying of these types of guns, which is a help, but imperfect. But if an officer carries a back up weapon, it is supposed to be registered. Plus, it’s harder to get away with a drop gun because of better forensic techniques. But if course, it still happens, I’m sure.

I know it's heresy but you dont think the nra with it's heavily politicized, fear mongering agenda has a role to play in creating this hyperekplexic society you speak of? all actions have consequences, direct and indirect.

And jean had a red doormat outside front door, the officer didn’t!!
How can u CORRECTLY CLOCK OUT UR SHIFT,CORRECTLY TURN IN BOSY CAM AND ETC AS SHIFT ENDS,CORRECTLY walk to her right car And CORRECTLY START THE CAR TO DRIve HERSELF HOME, she drOVE CORRECTLY on right side of street obeying all traffics laws and speed with the same EYES she’s been using all day and nyte on shift! (She seems to have been blind obviously to not recognized the red doormat jean had outside his apt when she hadn’t had any)so Now she’s CORRECTLY CAME TO HER APTS, CORRECTLY LOCKED HER CAR using her keys. But suddenly we should belIeve she was mistaken it for wrong apt?! Like why did she pull gun out demanding him to get on the floor if she felt he was in her building
Feeling she’d feel more superior and heroic knowing it was her apt building she needed to take actions on. Who doesn’t look up and make sure they’re at ryte place when they’re normal key don’t doesn’t work?! #moderndayslavery

Incompetent,reckless and trigger happy

It's one thing to go to the wrong apartment
But how out of it do you have to be,to keep trying over and over when your key card is not working? Without taking a second to verify you are at the right place?
The door finally opens and you fire your weapon?

They need to make an example out of her
We really need to stop hiring every hack who makes it through the academy

[Str8Kandi]

It’s just weird!! The way those places is the door couldn’t been cracked or she couldn’t mistake it from her cause I believe it’s too different levels or whatever!! It was either a setup or she was on some kind of drugs i wonder if they did a drug test on her yet?

[rexdutchman]

"Well you just cant fix stupid" (The cop , this has nothing to do with anything but her.) This is what happens when hiring standards are lowered just to have bodies.

[JalapenoPopper]

Gonna walk free or maybe just a 7 years in prison...stop the big drama.

You can look at hiring standards in the police department. The legal system can think about if an officers word should be given the weight it currently is,etc
