  • If you need to be "TRAINED" on how to treat anyone like a human being, then maybe you're not human.
  • An important missed point is that the police officer instructed her to remove the pot from the stove.
  • @audreymuzingo933
    Let's not just skip over the fact that he was at least 15 feet away from her. And YES he could have backed away if he really thought she might throw it. But she wasn't showing any threatening intent whatsoever, and those cops had no reason to be in her house following her around anyway!
  • @georgejetson9801
    he was so nasty and dismissive to her the entire time. he wasn't in any danger at all
  • @farouk7336
    That Devil heard the name Jesus and lost it!
  • @Olawale_3001
    This absolutely sucks. She was ordered to go to the kitchen and take the water pot off the stove. The name of Jesus is not a threat to shoot someone twice in the head and continue to curse her even after being dead. It’s a gruesome homicide, blatant disregard for human life and display of hatred.
  • There was no need for them to even be in her house.
  • @HatianHurricane
    Whatever happened to a taser. She was no threat. That incident is disturbing. Talking about a mental issue. The officer is the one who had the mental issue as far as I'm concerned. There is no way that idiot passed a psych evaluation.
  • @timestampz
    No ma'am I'll take it a step further. Are police trained to recognize the humanity of black people in underprivileged environments.
  • @DarylRodrigues
    The expert has not viewed the whole video. The officer ORDERED her to remove the pot from the stove, THAT IS THE ONLY reason she entered the kitchen area.
  • Imagine, if she hadn't picked up the phone to call for help, she would be alive right now. A simple decision that you think is right, leads to your last day on earth. Totally unjustifiable.
  • a demon doesn't have compassion or rationale
  • @andreedye283
    He was Demonic she decern it and he only proved what she was experiencing and saw.This video is sickening!!!
  • The ss and law enforcement gave a guy on a roof with a weapon a chance but a person with boiling water gets no chance 🤔
  • @theeoarsman921
    The cops had concluded their investigation so why did they enter her home?
  • @5339kimhall
    They set her up. He told her to go to the stove.
  • Unfortunately she only recognized the demon seconds before the demon killed her. In other words she was rebuking the demon and the name of Jesus set it off.
  • @the_veil_
    They shouldn’t have went in her home in the first place.. I never heard the police even ask for any entrance.. and if the girl wanted to boil a pot of water in home, thats her business.
