MIRIAM CAREY'S SISTERS: SHOOTING NOT JUSTIFIED
WND ^ | October 8, 2013 | WND

Posted on 10/08/2013 9:31:24 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

The sisters of a Connecticut woman shot and killed by police in Washington, D.C., a week ago say they have many unanswered questions ....

Miriam Carey, 34, was killed Oct. 3 after a car chase from the White House to the Capitol. Police say she rammed a metal barricade at the White House with her black Infiniti, although multiple videos show the front of her car relatively undamaged, and she was able to drive away....

She crashed into security barriers a few blocks away, where she was killed by so many police bullets her family was allowed only to see her photograph to identify her.....

The sisters told “Today” they still have not been told exactly what happened....

In another interview, a witness to the shooting said officers removed the 13-month-old child from the car then shot and killed the mother.

The witness said, “I saw them try to pull someone from the car and realized when they pulled someone from the car it was a child.”

That, the witness said, is when “the gunfire really let loose,” against the unarmed Miriam Carey.

She saw someone trying to get out of the car, there were more gunshots and then “a rush of people”.....

So then according to the witness she was shot after the baby had been removed from the car and then again while she was trying to get out of the car???

That's certainly not the story we have been told.

The family should demand the public release of the dashcam videos of the shooting.

Saw them last nite on Greta, what WND reports is true. They say they have not been told what happened and that their sister was NOT acting unstable prior to her being shot.

Didn’t all of Bammy’s Social Security numbers come from Connecticut too?

It would only be a story if the family said that it *was* justified.They surely have a lawyer who thinks that he/she/it will be able to convince an OJ jury that the Capitol Police were just doing a bit of target practice and,therefore,the family deserves $50 million.

Something is fishy in this story!!! We do not have all the facts....that is for sure!!! I sincerely hope that somebody...not the Obama government, is investigating to find the truth!!! I got the hint that cover-up was coming forth, immediately after the police spokesmen, both of them, from the outset, would not say a word about the woman that was killed, not even that she was a woman, let alone, an African-American!!! Funny....don’t ya think?

Maybe if she got out of the car instead of trying to run over the officers she might be alive now. Of course she wasn't mentally stable in the first place.

The question I have is this, did she not ram her car in the White House area before it came to a stop and before she got out?

If she had tried to run over police officers, it is not surprising she would be shot.

I am no a cop hater, but the pack syndrome runs very strong in them.

get them in a pack and they sometimes do bad things.

One of them pops a cap and the rest just naturally have to shoot too.

It’s excitement it’s adrenalin. its a lot of things , it’s bad news for whoever is the victim.

These police chase often end badly when police are fired up after the chase.

How many times was she shot? How can they keep that from the family after they claim the body, their mortician can count. An unarmed woman that keeps coming back perhaps one fool could have shot her and called it a mistake, but multiple shots fired and hitting her can only be set down to panic.

ALL the shooters: giffords, theater, fort hood, sandy hook, naval base, dc were taking the same psychotropic drugs, several seeing the same doctor
Just coincidence?

If this had happened in New York City at the hands of the NYPD SOMEONE’S ash would already be in a brief case. It is hard to see why she was shot and I’ll be watching for the explanation.

1. Shooting complete.
2. Story being concocted.
3. Superiors will justify.

But driving into the White House barricade after driving all the way from her home to Washington DC does not sound too "stable".

Why she did what she did, that's another question, IMHO. Medications, who knows.

Ramming a car towards guards in front of a government building kind of makes it look like a car bomb attack in progress; the guards are gonna therefore be afraid, and they may shoot. Ramming a car at the government will not solve any problems.
