In reply to the discussion: Officer charged with murder in shooting death of unarmed woman in Minneapolis alley [View all]Honeycombe8
(37,648 posts)17. You don't know that.
1. It has to be in this jurisdiction.
2. The woman killed has to be the one who called the cops to an alley because of a suspect.
3. She has to be acting normally, more or less....not in an argument or confrontation w/the cops, just walking up to them after they arrive.
I don't think the copy should have been charged. What seems to have happened is that they were startled when she appeared at the car's window, in the dark, where they knew a suspect had been spotted. Seems like in his nervousness he just shot, when he was startled. That's negligence, not murder.
