The Capitol police officer who shot a woman attempting to breach the speaker’s lobby during the Capitol Hill riot is reportedly not likely to face charges after a preliminary decision by investigators in the case.
The officer, who has not been named, had been placed on leave after the Jan. 6 riot while an investigation took place into whether rioter Ashli Babbitt’s civil rights were violated, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Babbitt, a 35-year-old Air Force veteran and Qanon supporter, was climbing through a window that had been shattered by protesters when she was killed.
The Justice Department civil rights investigation into the shooting was a routine procedure following the use of deadly force by a police officer in Washington D.C.
The investigators have made an initial determination not to file charges. Justice Department officials need to make a final determination, the Journal said.
Shure > she is White so No Charges !!! OH, climbing through a Window Unarmed !!! What a crime !!!
Not Justified shooting > Lethal Force All cop had to do was observe , or use Physical force !!! Period
Don’t worry, SlowJoe will unmask him like he did Seal Team 6.
I saw the video. The government murdered her just like they shot down Levoi Finnicum while he was standing In knee deep snow with his hands in the air. I saw both videos. There was absolutely nobody under immediate threat In either one. They were MURDERED by the government. Get used to it folks- that’s how communism works.
he’s a murderer! she was not a threat.
Eventually the officer will be found out.
If I were him, I would go into hiding.
Just a matter of time.
Pelosi will make the officer a Hero !!! Even though he is a Zero !!!
If you watch the video there are police officers in riot gear coming up the steps less than 5 feet from where she was trying to go through the window. There was no reason she had to be shot. Whites should be protesting in the street that a black cop murdered this woman.
Yes there should be a Million Americans back to D.C to protest , just as if she were Black !!!
It was a white cop. You just said yourself there’s video. Don’t try to turn this into a race thing.
The video I saw the cop was black.
Nice try but wrong.
only job you can have where you can murder people and get away with it.
sad.
Double standard in America is Obvious !!!
It was not a justified shooting! The Capitol Police Officer will be charged and convicted of Excessive Use of Deadly Force! Pay up time!!!
Has nothing to do with color. This chit HAS to be thrown in on everything that is done today. A subject should be charged on the same level no matter what flavor. Every form you fill out axe for that crap. Maybe it could be on the census, I don’t fill them out either. All of this crap isn’t necessary.
Her Husband should SUE the Hell out of D.C !!!! Wrongful Shooting Period !!!
