Indeed. But she thought she was holding a taser, which is not a deadly weapon. The law usually considers a person's intention. Her intention was to subdue him, not to kill him.

These sorts of things will happen with split-second decisions using these sorts of weapons.

I am so happy that the UK police do not usually carry deadly weapons because in most circumstances, criminals don't have guns.

She fired her gun into a car with Daunte, a passenger, and a cop on the passenger side. Gross recklessness.

She shouldn't have even used her taser under those circumstances, while Daunte was behind the wheel.
Which caused another car accident with an elderly couple.

Her lawyer argued she had every right to use her gun, even if it was an accident. Mr. Gray did NOT help her.

Remember, she was TRAINING a rookie when this happened, 26 years, she didn't show ANY professionalism.
