Los Angeles settles with women fired on in manhunt



(yet the eight officers remain assigned to non-field duties pending an internal investigation)

I honestly feel it should be more than 4.2 million. These stupid cops did everything wrong in that situation. If I were hunting and shot at a noise because it sounded like a deer, and I unintentionally hit a person, what would happen to me. They fired on innocent people without first confirming their target. That, in my book, is a big, big deal. If it were me, it would take 10 times that for me to settle and I would want the officers jobs. Just my opinion. Rant off

Forget the $4.2 million.
Eight officers fired over 100 shots at one vehicle at close range and only hit one occupant twice, and missed the other occupant altogether.

That my friends, is the hand of God at work.

LA should have just bought them a new truck like they asked for.

They did. Then they wanted the women to pay the taxes on it. Go figure. Glad to see they got something out of it. Here's hoping that the "internal investigation" results in attempted murder charges against the officers, altho we know that's not going to happen. They'll get a slap on the wrist at best.

And a hero medal. Can't forget the medal.

Sounds like $42 thousand per shot.

Each officer that discharged a weapon in the general vicinity of that truck needs to be FIRED.

She can build quite a few cabins for that price.

They did deploy incendiary devices into her home, so ya, she's due something.

Different case. The people with the cabin DO deserve to be paid back for their willfully destroyed property. This is the case of the women in the truck.

Crap - My bad.

That incident sucked also. What's the problem here anyway?

You may be correct but you'd think 8 ,supposedly, trained officers would be better then that. Devine intervention just struck me as more likely. Had that actually been Dorner, there may have been eight more victims with that hit/miss ratio?

I have a friend that went out west an is now a member of the lapd. He is now a brain washed a-hole.
This is no different than the Empire State Building shootings in New York City. Cops opened fire on the street into the crowd hitting innocent people. They probly didn't even get a free subway ride out of it there.

 

[Degtyaryov]

Good. The idiots who shot her should have to pay it personally, or be sent to labor camps until they can.

Nice... Police attempt to murder a couple of civilians by accident. They remain on payroll (and will likely not be put in prison as they should)... and the Tax Payers fit the bill for a $4.2 million settlement.

Justice is served

I would call it justice served if that 4.2mil came from the police pension fund.

The chances of the moon slamming into the earth are greater than these cops going to jail like they probly should. I mean they atleast should get a trial and not some feel good one sided internal investigation.
