Day 4 of trial of Kristian White who definitely didn’t straight up murder a 95 year old woman armed with a walker and a fruit knife.
Sure looks like the sort of life-or-death scenario that possibly justifies deploying a torture device from that cctv footage.
The jury has previously been played body-cam footage of the moments after the incident.
Why only after.
“Because it’s devastating to my case!”
Legit.
The incident involved two knives. Here’s a picture of them (from the linked article):
The officer tased a 95-year old woman, who needed a walker to move about, because she was holding a steak knife.
Ya, I get not wanted to get a bit of a ragged cut, but Jesus Zombie Christ, that situation sounds less threatening than a box full of kittens.Yeah, but we have to assume that a person wielding a knife can instantly stab you from 100 yards away, because uhh… I can’t walk backwards?
