Woman calls 911 to report a posable sexual assault....gets shot and killed for her trouble. And guess what, the Police did not have mandated body cameras running . Minneapolis again! Be careful in WI.....they are a bit trigger happy up there.

The Cops probably turn on the cameras when they get out of the car to make contact with a subject. What strikes me as wierd is the cop shot through the door to shoot and kill the lady. Sounds like an ND. Maybe it was a Glock. Cops aren't talking maybe they are are trying to get their stories together.
Philando Castile was killed just about a year ago, in the area. Makes one wonder why they have these issues. Poror training maybe?

This is a very interesting case since no one is saying what happened yet. The story I just read (Police Magazine) makes it look less like an ND than deliberate shooting. The officer was in the passenger seat and he "reached over" to shoot her. No weapons at the scene but her cell phone was found where she dropped it, implying to me that she had the phone in her hand when shot.

The police have not released any other information and no one from the family is yelling yet other than not knowing what happened. Cameras not on are easy to understand, useless for images in this case anyway but audio might have helped. Car camera is used when red lights come on and this was not a stop like that. It can be turned on manually but that would be when they get out of the car and only if they thought something would happen in front of the car. Body cameras would usually get turned on when they exit the car to approach the suspect. They could have a policy of turning it on for any citizen contact but it would be highly unlikely. Most places would not turn on the camera just to take a report, which is what this call was.

This call could be an example of why using the body camera and the car camera for any citizen contact is a good idea, even if it is an expensive one. Storage costs for all of the data that would produce would be enormous, in addition to the cost of having an employee review the recordings to determine which get kept and which get deleted as unnecessary.

Sorry. I've been getting my States mess up lately. The news said dept. policy mandated that the "new" body cameras should have been on.

why pair two rookies? 1 year and 2 year? sort of seems like asking for trouble, shouldn't they still be learning from mentors?
