In reply to the discussion: Officer could face stiffer charge for killing unarmed neighbor [View all]joshcryer
(62,534 posts)33. Yeah, she's 100% lying about how it went down, too.
People heard her loudly yell "open the door!" so there is a major discrepancy there. She obviously chose the order of events which would give her the best case, and it's because she was allowed to be free for days to get her story together.
The way they're saying she parked on a different floor of the parking garage makes it sound like she got more reasonably confused about which floor she was on, and the fact that she claims the door was ajar (which I doubt it was) makes it even more suspicious.
