Im confused.
“Slain Woman Shot by Salem Police in Head, Chest”
Is that like “Dead woman killed by death?”
Why would police shoot a slain woman?
This is almost unreadable. What part of the body is the Eastgate Park? I am not very good at Latin. Sounds like the cop might have accidentally dropped his backup gun.
I’m more interested in the events than the grammatical style. Why’d she get shot for just a traffic stop? Was she stopped on some felony warrant? If not, what traffic violation could merit deadly force?
“Investigators at the scene found a gun in the location Ford fell, authorities said.”
Yea, I bet they did. /s
Why was the witness wrestling with a Salem police officer?
This article is such a mess, I really can't follow the story.
Why would they shoot a slain woman?
;-)
I’ll guess this was written in Tibetan or Cantonese and translated to Engrish??
But her name is deceptive...
Wait...the officer chased her, wrestled with her, shot her, THEN sent in the canine?? The writing within this article is horrendous.
"Multiple arrests for meth possession, driving while suspended, burglary, and weapon charges seems to indicate a heavy drug problem now doesn't it? If I had multiple DUIs and assault charges, that would indicate I drank more than just "one beer" now wouldn't it? I think she used meth a lot more than one time.
Her record and previous weapons and drug convictions indicates pretty heavily this was a justified shooting. It is a pretty damned hard sell to get anyone to believe she was an innocent girl gunned to death by the big bad cops."
I hope more official information is released later. Can you monitor this Nick and see if there is more forthcoming? There is a photo of her but I am unable to transfer it.
I am beginning to believe that the Islamist terrorists we are fighting have a better chance of surviving an encounter with our military under their rules of engagement than the general public has in encounters with our domestic ‘police’ force.
Smoke was rising up? Salem PD uses black powder?
I wonder if this is a copy of the Closed Captioning that ran while the story aired on TV. That might explain the weird syntax.
Why is her history relevant? Do we have summary execution for meth heads?
Yesterday, the news here in Oregon says she was “connected to the Gypsy Jokers biker gang”, but they didn’t say what the connection was.
jail records show that she had been held in the Multnomah County Jail as recently as late February.
Good luck reading the article.
This actually sounds like a righteous shoot. Eyewitness testimony isn’t the most reliable thing. Bad light, fast action, lots of stress. Gun found on the scene. Yeah, I guess it could be a throw down, but you’ll never prove it.
