(29,219 posts)according to one report the residents in that complex say that all the doors were auto locking and used an electronic tab to open... so how did she get into the "wrong apartment" to begin with.
As for her story about she "shot silhouette after commands ignored"... why didn't she turn on the lights so she could see who it was?
This story is just plain weird.

(65 posts)She says she started to use the key but since door was slightly ajar it just got pushed open. I'd like to know what the apartment numbers are and how are they displayed. How many accidental deliveries these residents must experience if all the doors on all the floors look alike? Hmmmmm? Not even a trained police officer knows which door.

He was probably trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Then he took a fatal bullet.
There has to be a punishment to fit the crime here. There has to be.
Breaking in and murder. Wasn't a law enforcement issue. She shouldn't get away with it just because she's a police officer.

She probably was drunk out of her head though to make so many mistakesparking on the wrong level, entering the wrong door despite its red doormat, not realizing it was her apartment, then shooting at a silhouette who ignored her commands.
Come on!
Looks like they gave her time to get that bullshit story together during the time she wasn't arrested. Wonder how many others helped her with that?

Why didn't she call for backup?
Why go in alone?
This story stinks to high heaven.

(26,611 posts)She should have slammed the door, ran, and called the on-duty police from a safe distance.
They would have figured out the mistake when they showed up at the address she gave them and wondered WTF there was nobody there.
The stories and excuses are at least pretty convincing evidence that she has no real remorse for killing him, even if she does feel bad about having gotten herself into some pretty hot water.
She should at least never be allowed to walk among civilized human beings ever again without being called out as the murderer she is.
This can NEVER be excused.

(7,447 posts)just like I posted in another post, and just like you lost your stuff over assuming I approved of it, this comes down to the argument that he "didn't comply."
Which is exactly what I said it was going to be.

(25,598 posts)Soon after, one evening I returned home to find that on my way out I'd turned the key to lock the door but the door wasn't completely shut and the bolt was out but on the outside, holding the door slightly ajar. It was dark and I hadn't noticed. Of course I imagined axe murders or serial killers or burglars or Mormons waiting inside to get me. Finally I decided this was unlikely since I'd only been gone for about 45 minutes. What did I do when I went inside? I TURNED ON THE FUCKING LIGHTS.
None of the scenarios so far make any sense.
