Australian woman killed by police in US after dialing 911 to report disturbance

Really? Interesting, and you're probably right. Most of these examples do end up exonerating the cops.
This is really a very bizarre incident and I hope we get the true story of what happened. Did he warn here not to come too close? Did he have any viable reason to fire his weapon at her besides that noise they claim they heard?
This should be an interesting case to follow.

What about the cops blasting 20 shots into that guy in his grandmother's driveway in Sacramento? The story came out yesterday, guy had a phone in his hand and of course they thought it was a gun and basically emptied their clips into him. Crazy world but I think the cops need to be held a bit more accountable, even in dark areas since they have the power to kill people. I think they shouldn't be able to just say "it was dark" if you know what I mean. Even though they don't have much time to react, the onus is still on them.

This case here has reeked of weirdness from day one. What did this guy see from this woman that was so threatening for him to blast her in the abdomen? Something's not right.

For the Australian case *I think* she ran up to the car from behind and stuck her arm in the open drivers side window and the cop in the passenger side quickly pulled out his gun and fired at her across the lap of the driver.

She had to have done something along those lines because it doesn't make much sense to shoot her if you think about it.

If he's found guilty to any extent, even manslaughter like you said, it will definitely open the door for a major civil lawsuit.
