Partner of Cop who Fatally Shot Bride-to-be 'was STUNNED when his Colleague opened Fire [Trunc]
Daily Mail (U.K.) ^ | July 18, 2017 | Shekhar Bhatia & Hannah Parry

The partner of a Minneapolis cop who shot dead bride-to-be Justine Damond was 'stunned' when the officer opened fire through a squad car door, sources say.

Officer Matthew Harrity, who was in the driving seat, was speaking to Damond after she called 911 to report a sexual assault occurring near her home, when his partner reached across him and fatally shot her in the abdomen.

A police source told KARE11 that Harrity was 'left stunned' by Noor's actions.

The revelation makes the motive for shooting all the more mysterious as it appears that Harrity did not view Damond as posing a threat.

The Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, BCA, investigating the incident, is remaining tight lipped about what happened late that Saturday night until they finish interviewing Noor and Harrity as part of their probe.

Meanwhile, the Mayor of Minneapolis Betsy Hodges is demanding to know why neither officer had their bodycam turned on at the time, which she called a 'key question' for investigators.

A police source told KARE11 that Harrity was ‘left stunned’ by Noor’s actions.

...

I would be stunned, too, even if the shooting was justified. Taking a selective quote from an unnamed source and implying a conclusion from it is fake news.

I wonder- if the cop in question were a white Christian how many people would be saying “wait for all the facts and evidence” or “you don’t know how hard that job is” or such. This must be the FIRST time a cop has killed someone that I haven’t seen a poster say they should get at least the benefit of the doubt.

It is possible for one cop to see or perceive a threat that his partner standing (sitting in this case) next to him does not see or perceive.

The known circumstances in this case however will require some serious explanations which I doubt we will see until a trial.

Right now, today, the family needs to retain a very good lawyer.

My thoughts too.

Nothing good has ever come from “diversity.”

Diversity kills!

He’ll never see the death house but I think he’ll probably become acquainted with the inside of the big house. He crossed a red line. We all know what that line is.

Let’s see a big fat slob attacks and punches cop and tries to take his gun and is shot causes riots. A woman who called the police to report a crime, while talking to the cop is shot in the stomach and silence. Thank goodness for the internet or nobody outside of Minneapolis would know about this.

So this cop did this for racial political reasons, no???

After all the years that I have been with FR, I am still waiting for an edifying story on Islam or a muzzie. Please, someone invent one so that we can feel good about all the muzzies that have invaded our country and are still coming in.

So where is Officer Muhammad now? Is he on one of those "paid leaves of absence" that public employees seem to always be getting placed on?

Does he still have his passport? How long before we find out he's gone to Yemen, or back home to Somalia?

Then you missed the early threads because there were plenty of them.

Shooting over his partner gave some of them pause.

The fact that this will be the fourth time in two years that this cop has gotten a "violation of rights" complaint against him gave others pause.

This is the first I heard of the fact that they were in their police car when the shooting happened.

But it may explain why the body cameras were not turned on as most police policies state to turn them on whe getting out of the police car....until then the dash camera is only running.

And don’t forget cops get the benefit of the cool down period of 3 days to a week before being allowed to be interviewed.

Any other person that is apprehended shortly after any shooting crime is subjected to interrogation for hours on end immediately following their arrest.

““...He killed someone....”
****************************
More precisely ... he MURDERED someone.”

More precisely...Its up to the state to prove in a court of law whether a killing was a murder or not.

Things don’t look good as far as I have read but It’s a killing until the subject is indicted,tried and convicted.
