Denver ~ Cops shoot and kill 16 year-old girl

[Mac-7]

It interesting noting how as the thread wore on posters cared less and less about the facts of the case and more and more about just plain partisan politics

The facts have not changed since the opening.

The girl was a violent criminal in a stolen car who tried to run over a cop.

The facts have not changed since the opening.

The girl was a violent criminal in a stolen car who tried to run over a cop.

The view from Gracie Mansion is that she was an innocent child who was only trying to protect herself from the cops, who were trying to kill her for the trivial offense of unauthorized borrowing of a car.

Truth. However; we've had 4 of these types of shootings in the past 7 months.

The policy needs to be reviewed as it's the logical and responsible thing to do.

Family of Denver Teen killed by Police Want Federal Probe

The family of a 17-year-old girl who was shot to death by Denver police while driving a stolen car is calling for a federal civil rights investigation into her death.

Jessica Hernandez was killed Monday after police say she drove the car toward an officer, an account disputed by one of the teens in the car.

In a statement Friday, Hernandez's parents said they want the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate her death and for U.S. Attorney John Walsh in Colorado to oversee the criminal investigation of the officers involved.

The family says it doesn't trust Denver police to conduct a fair and timely investigation, and that the department has a history of exonerating its officers.

Walsh's spokesman, Jeff Dorschner, says Walsh is aware of the request but won't comment further.

The Denver Police Department and an independent city official are reviewing police policies that allow officers to fire on vehicles under certain circumstances. Some other departments have banned the practice.

Will the investigation tell us how the Hernandez family got into the US to begin with?

She was one of those illegals with calves the size of cantaloupes ?



Racist xenophobe Steve King (R-IA), of “calves the size of cantaloupes” fame, has a new shocker for us: Immigrants apparently give their children birth control and send them down the path of rape.

I haven't seen a picture of her calves so I'm not sure.

guess she forgot to take her hands off the stolen steering wheel and put them up! Instead she chose to try to run over the officer. Who do you think a judge is going to believe? A teenager who was joy riding in a stolen car testifying for the friend who stole the car, or the police officer and the Dr. who treated him for being hit by a car?
This is a no brainer. The family is looking for money.

They are probably behind on the payments to their coyote.
