Ft Worth police officer shoots woman to death inside her home

If we stick to this specific incident, then the officers should have never drawn their weapons. This is a welfare check, not going into a violent situation or known armed assailant. Just imagine if your kid was frying catfish for dinner and opened the front door to let the odor out and ended up dead. This is a failure of policy and training.

"But your honor, he was within 20 feet of me and had a knife"

That's the crux of the problem. If a police officer creates "danger" (perceived or even real) by them doing something stupid, they should be held accountable for it. That's why I was encouraged by the Botham Jean verdict, and hopefully where this one ends up too.
