Minnesota Police Chief: Ms. Diamond Reynolds Claims Do Not Match Reality
Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 13, 2016 | Sundance

Updating the latest developments in the Philando Castile shooting. If you have additional information use the comments section. Also, please note the name of the convenience store – too many media people using disinformation, we don’t need more here.

Finally today the police chief in Roseville, Minesota stated the recent reports pushed by Ms. Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds do not match the reality of what took place the night of Wednesday July 6th.

During a CNN interview (watch video here) Chief Rick Mathwig says Ms. Reynolds reports don’t line up with reality. The governor of Minnesota also used false statements given by Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds to make his comments.

re: the CPR question, she may have asserted a lack of CPR (when in fact it turns out that CPR was promptly administered??), but it’s actually the wrong thing to do when faced with multiple bleeding bullet wounds, anyway. Chest (heart) compressions for someone with bleeding bullet wounds is just gonna make them bleed out faster. The people on the scene wanted to help, but CPR in that situation will not help. Stopping bleeding to the extent possible and getting the guy to surgery was the only hope, but if the bleeding was (as it appears) within abdomen and/or chest it was not going to be stopped outside of an operating room. Depending upon the exact wounds, he may not have had much chance of survival outside of a hospital.

Ofc once someone points this out to her or her lawyers, next they will claim negligence for administering the CPR, so it is a no win situation.

Another narrative falling apart...
How is this different that yelling fire in a crowded theater?

People are dead.

Obama, Lynch, MN Gov all knew the Officer wasn't even white.

Rubbish Reynolds has told four different stories. Ask yourself why that story keeps changing.

The regime needed a few dead white cops to start the BLM race war and the media was only happy to help.

Always stop the bleeding and make sure the patient is breathing. If the heart has stopped the bleeding will have stopped. I think the man was shot in the arm four times. I’m sure an artery was pretty mangled. It wouldn’t have taken long for him to bleed out. However, the cop should have pulled him out of the car and called for an ambulance instead of arguing with Lavish.

If the person has, in fact, stopped breathing or their heart has stopped and a fully equipped paramedic unit is not on the scene, CPR is always the right thing to do, bleeding wounds or no bleeding wounds. If you are not breathing and/or your heart has stopped, bleeding is a secondary problem at that point.

The video of Anonymous on Castille and Sterling looks pretty bad. It looks like there probably was excessive force used. Realize I don’t have all the facts here but both incidents look bad for the police. Am fed up about what happened in Dallas and violent rhetoric from Black Lives Matter but the Sterling and Castille videos don’t look good for police or arguments supporting procedures applied. The arm of the officer talking to Castille’s female companion in the Anonymous video certainly looked white. Mistakes she makes On facts on some things doesn’t make everything about the video and how people interpret it wrong.

Thanks, well I didn’t express my concern correctly. The governor apparently asserted that officers provided no CPR (which now is said to be untrue, there was CPR according to some sources).

While the guy still had any heart output, CPR would be the wrong thing to do. Yet, the girlfriend and a lot of the public might assume (from watching TV etc.) that CPR should be performed right away.

By the time the heart stopped, in this sort of case, with lots of blood loss, the prognosis must have been really grim outside of a hospital operating room. Attempting CPR at that point is called for, but it was probably pretty hopeless. Report is that CPR was done, anyway.

Diamond should have stuffed her boyfriend with tampons instead of turning on her video.

What does the Media do when there is Video of a group of black people beating the shiut out of a white person?

They censor it. They won’t touch it.

And there’s no shortage of those Videos.

And there’s an Army of Facebook And College zombies out there that think the News Media plays whatever is happening without goals and objectives.

Just curious, but how does the Castille video, which only records events that transpired after the use of force occurred shed any light at all on the events that preceded? It’s most the girlfriend’s stream of consciousness narrative, along with the graphic images of the mortally wounded Castille, and shows no use of force at all, either excessive or reasonable. What do you find in that video that leads you to the conclusion that excessive force was used?

That there’s a dead body? Seems pretty “excessive” to me. Likewise, the fact that the officer continues to point a loaded gun at the deceased also seems like excessive force. You are supposed to use the minimum force needed to ensure compliance. He was dead. Dead people no longer resist.

Mighty presumptive of you and the wording sounds very leftist or at best, hoplophobic. Not taking either side 'cause there's not enough information available just yet. But if I were to end up in a situation where I thought my life was in danger, there is no "excessive force". Someone else could just as easily said "dead people no longer threaten".
As a side, an "unloaded" gun is merely a bludgeon. Would the situation have been somehow improved if the officer had "unloaded" his weapon into Mr Castille? Would you feel at all comforted by standing there with an unloaded gun in that situation?
On the flip side, if there's any veracity to the girlfriend's story there's a real need for some legal action. Personally, I'll wait for the information to shake out before coming to any conclusions. These things have a way of getting twisted around. d:^)

The officer’s name is Jeronimo Yanez. (Puerto Rican maybe?) Anon is not a centralized org. Bunch of kids, mostly. YUGE grain of salt with them.

Here’s something you haven’t heard:
“he lets the officer know: ‘Officer, I have a firearm on me,” she said. “I begin to yell, ‘But he’s licensed to carry.’” (not sure why she would ‘yell’ that??)

in the paragraph before that we have an instructor saying:
“We make several jokes about it during class: ‘I have a gun’ is not the way to say you have a gun on you,” Wellman said.

further down we have the sister saying that the deceased normally shut his weapon up in the glove box.
“she said she puts it in her glove compartment in a holster with the safety on. ‘Most of the time, he did the same,’ the 23-year-old woman said of her brother. ‘There’s never a time I saw him driving in the car with his weapon on his person.’ “
