@@annaxefta587 It’s called empathy. Like I would feel sorry for someone if they got into a bad car accident and have empathy towards them. I wouldn’t say,” oh you chose to get behind the wheel, so you should have known the risks”.
@annaxefta587 so let's say someone becomes a police officer in order to help their community. That police officer ends up having to shoot someone in a situation that makes them feel terrible. Are you seriously saying that you don't understand how that would be a bad situation? I gotta ask if you are a psychopath or something? Do you not feel empathy? Would you just be okay going to work and shooting someone? What's wrong with you?
He was such a nice officer. I really feel for him having to take such actions. He really tried his best to talk with her. I hope he's OK. Prayers to the families affected by this incident.
He just help a soul take their own life. This could have been prevented at many level. First, who in their right mind would approach a park vehicle in the wrong way; without having to wait for back-ups. Once he spoke to the SUV driver, obviously the woman is delusional and in distressed. That should have been a red flag of sensing a danger of something is wrong. Once he saw a firearm, he immidiately panic and beat feet to the rear of the SUV. He exactly knew where his rounds trajectery would be heading. He immidiately used the rear of the SUV for his own safety, not the Jeep's driver or anybody downrange from him. He didn't want to get hit by incoming cars both direction of traffic. Last resorts, he could have attemted to disarmed the woman at arms reach, but he chose to get an ample amount of distance for engagement of shooting her.

And you've been in this situation to know exactly how to respond right and felt what this officer felt? Lol.

Agree. I live in Colorado and I've been pulled over and had my vehicle approached when I was taking a nap. They wanted to make sure I was okay. One didn't give me a ticket when my registration wasn't updated;I had financial trouble making payments and told the officer. He said something along the lines of the economy is in the gutter so he understands. He checked my DL and said have a nice day.
@@delaneymarks3303 He should toughen up a bit. She attempted to kill him. I wonder if he is still on patrol or assigned to desk duty. Some cops never recover.
What he said about America, was said out of pure shock. When a person is put in the position to have to take someones life, they sometimes say thing that dont make much sense. The reporter made it seem as if he was being sketchy somehow, and that rubbed me the wrong way. That man was hurt, confused, worried amongst many other things. He did nothing wrong, he was very polite and was trying very hard to help that woman. She escalated that situation and unfortunately lost her life, that officer did what he had to do.
It almost seemed like he was trying to say its a miracle and God bless America came after... I think the only thing bizarre I'd the anchor calling it bizarre! He was in shock, I'd like to see how she would handle the same situation.
Agreed, this cop could have just sought cover and waited for backup. There is something really off about his reaction, yelling at the driver, and then shooting her from the rear of the vehicle.@@multicolor8476
The way that poor Officer broke down nearly brought me to tears as well. He's very clearly a man who wants nothing more than to help people, and felt this was the best profession in which to do so. The fact he was forced to do what he did is an unfortunate drawback of his profession. I am always grateful for every First Responder (Police/Sheriff, Ambulance and Fire) for what they do to help us all.
My son became an officer in April 2023. I worry about his life and situations like this EVERY day. Your comment is heartwarming to good men and women who choose to protect us. (and the people who love them) ❤

Well i think he should quit. He was literally crying. Who cries in such situations ? Yeah the whole scenario was a sad but cops should be emotionally strong on duty. Cry all you want when you're off duty.
Officer, please know you had no other choice. You made the right decision. I wish there were more police officers like you who have a heart and conscience. I feel your pain and thank you for your services. Hope you recover from this unfortunate incident.
And that ladies and gentlemen that is a real police officer. He talks to you like a human he never escalates and tries to help you and is responsible while talking to the other people and didn’t let another officer interrupt him.
Everyone plays a role though. Notice after the shots fired. The cop checks on the jeeps passengers. But at first he simply yells in a very authoritarian voice. Yes he's in shock and has adrenaline. His intentions were good but if that civilian had chose to react poorly to his escalated actions (as alot of people these days) then it would've been worse.

@@0Apostata0 No. When she pulled out a FA, lethal force was the only option. If she refused to comply, but did not have a FA, medical personnel or a negotiator could have been utilized. A tazer is less than lethal. Two different types of defense.

Officers like that unfortunately have a hard time recovering. They are completely necessary to have out in the streets but there is a shelf life for that type of officer and due to him doing the right thing it got shorter. Hopefully they outsource him to department training or allow him to ride a negotiator position for incident command for a while. That will be his best hope if he wants to return to the streets in his career.
he almsot killed a bystander due to reckless shooting. for the saftey of the public he needs to be put on leave and re treined. that was way to close of a call. the woman almsot died
This is the purest, most caring and most wholesome police officer i've ever seen. Even at the beginning, instead of getting angry for her not answering, he just asked if she was ok and needed help
@@elizajohn5Do you have a closed head injury or something? Maybe you’re the product of incest? I don’t know what else it could be that makes you so incredibly mentally deficient, but there is a vast universe worth of difference between self defense and murder. This was not murder by any standard.
Actually, the cop sounds like a good cop. He legit gave her the benefit of the doubt and treated it like a likely medical emergency. Why are gunshot noises censored?
Hey. I agree. I wonder the same. A few months ago I saw a brittish (I believe) report from Ukraine and the journalist team + guide got like at least 10 close VERY close fire shots all around them. What they decided to censor though? Them CURSING! Censorship is just baffling.

A huge percentage of cops don’t go back to the job after killing a person. I hope he truly knows that this lady was trying to do this, as awful as it seems, and he did NOTHING evil.
@@POW_RYDER Just because a job involves risk doesn't mean that the worker deserves any less sympathy for having bad things happen. Firefighters are aware of what their job could involve, but it makes complete sense to feel sympathy for one who witnessed someone die in a burning building. For (good) police officers, their job is keeping the public safe and responding to emergencies. They take the burden of that risk so other people don't have to. That doesn't mean they waive their rights to have emotions about what they experience.
This cop is so sweet, this breaks my heart. The way he sincerely asked if she was okay at the beginning showed how much he cares. I really hope this department and his family are getting him the help he deserves.
Yeah, but incapable with dealing with public safety, working under pressure and making good split decisions. Dude is a liability and a danger to society.
Absolutely.. And the the "America" comment is something most of us non Americans say, everytime we see civilians with firearms.. It's just so abstract to where I'm from.. But yes, beautiful police officer who was doing his level best.. 100%.
Man, this breaks my heart. That Cop's process was by the book. Exemplary cop behavior, he's the type of officer we need. Empathetic, yet stepped in to action right away without a second thought.
@@Aireck174- that’s a goddamned LIE. She was stopped facing the wrong direction in the opposing lane of traffic blocking all traffic. The officer was called to the scene, he did not pull her over. YOU are a goddamned LIAR!
As a resident of this area, I will safely say that we need more officers like you. Not only were you professional, you also did not hesitate to protect and serve. Like it says in the credo. So glad that you'll live to tell the tale.
Murdering someone by shooting them in the back four times is the opposite of protecting and serving. He killed someone and wrecklessly almost hit and hurt someone else with his unethical behavior also but their vehicle luckly shielded them for his assault with a deadly weapon. Cowards shoot people in the back. End qualified immunity now to help stop tragedies like this from happening.
@@ltdan1273 actually the antithesis of protection and serving would be If the woman were to actually pull out the gun and shoot him as well as other people around. This man did the right thing in a very stressful situation. It would be a danger if he didn't do what he did.
Rip to the Lady he killed she was human being who didn't deserve to die. Why cops never choose not kill people? No way he should of killed her. That cop is a pure murderer in my eyes.
The fact that he said "it does not seem you been drinking" say it all. He is not out to get her but on the contrary has genuine concern for her well-being, even by using the request word "please." This is an officer that should be a role model to all law enforcement. Kind, considerate, concerned and with a loving heart. God bless you officer, we need more like you.
I agree Unforseen. This was tough to watch. I am a janitor at a police station. These men and women work hard. I do my part. They are willing to sacrifice there lives each day for our City of Rochester, NH. That officer was caring. It broke his heart to shoot the criminal. He had to. Thanks..
@Unforseen Truth, everything positive you've written about the police officer is your interpretation and doesn't have to be so. (Him being kind, considerate etc. man.) The fact that he started blazing his gun while not being in eminent danger (yet? Because seeing guns in a glovebox is not being in danger), almost killing an innocent bystander because he didn't checked his line of fire tells me he never should be an example for others who serve. If this was in the Netherlands this cop would be "burned at the stake". Chances are it wouldn't even happen here because they patrol by the two and are trained for 4 years...
Police officer's cry for forgiveness from the deceased victim broke my soul! 😢 My dad served 25 years with the police department. I prayed everyday he would come home!😢
He wasn't apologizing to the deceased woman, he said I'm so sorry to the occupants of the Jeep, whose windshield got shattered by one of his bullets. He was heartbroken that he could have accidentally killed someone in that car. Rewatch the video and you'll see.
This is why body cameras are so important. You could tell this officer was more concerned about figuring out the situation than escalation. There didn't seem to be any unprofessional behavior. He gave the woman plenty of opportunity to explain what's going on without yelling. He seemed to have correctly identified the threat (the gun). It would be difficult for a lawyer to argue that a cop placed a gun on the scene if everyone's on bodycam.
Time, from your perspective? your reality of time may be very different from someone else's state of mind. If it took all day to get this resolved without shooting her that would have been a better outcome, but we will never know.
The way this cop conducted himself was absolutely 100% professional and to hear him cry for not wanting to kill her was absolutely heartbreaking. God bless this officer going forward
That cop would have been in big trouble if he killed that lady in the Jeep.. an officer was indicted in New Orleans for the same sort of thing, except one of his bullets hit an innocent person, not a near miss. A cops freedom really should not be dictated by good or bad luck. Being a cop these days isn't worth the risk.

@@AKbaby89 Well that professional put a round through the windshield of an occupied vehicle. Clearly it wasn't intentional but the law doesn't care about intent- manslaughter would be applicable. This is why I only cary for me and mine.. not to play hero. Shooting off rounds in a crowded area is a good way to accidentally kill someone and get charged criminally and sued civilly.

That's why there's different charges for different intentions 🤣 you really are just the most knowledgeable on the law, arent ya?
It’s amazing, the patience this officer was showing her at first. Such a stark difference compared to their approach with others. Even the emotional reaction afterwards. Such a difference between zip codes.
What a amazing police officer, he did what he was trained for and thank God he's still standing . Hopefully he recovers and continues in the police force, a true gentleman
They actually don't train cops to engage when bystanders are directly in the line of fire. thousands of people die every year at the hands of police, we saw why in the above clip. he was inches away from adding 1 to the count
Wow this is heartbreaking, for everyone involved. This officer seems to truly care and I hope we get more like him. I hope this incident doesn’t hurt his career or his thoughtfulness as a human. 😢
Doesn't hurt his career? He murdered a woman. Wtf is wrong with you? This cop should be in jail for murder and wreck less discharge of a firearm. It's sick you people are worried about the murderer and not the victim.
Not all cops desire to kill? I did not know that any cops desired to kill. Maybe a crazy get on the force here and there but, your statement sounds like you think there are a larger portion of Cop that desire to kill people.

I agree, this officer did not want to shoot this woman, however he was left with no choice but to protect his own life. She was obviously having a mental breakdown, on drugs or something more severe. I sure hope this officer receives the appropriate counseling to help him endure this fatality.
I wish idiots would realize that the police are caring individuals with loving families!!!! Why does anyone not think that cops are "human"? So sick of this ignorance.
@@Jojo-fy2udI guess the better point would be that evil cannot be retained in people of any profession. It’s hard to label all people in a specific line of work as soulless individuals. A large portion, if not most, are decent people with the best intentions. Even some of the ones who aren’t completely morally stable still play a vital role in maintaining a civilized society.
I feel sad & empathy for the officer. He was concerned, respectful, kind, & empathetic to the woman prior to shooting her. He was really trying to help her, “you don’t seem like you’ve been drinking, what’s going on?” He acted quickly & unfortunately, he took her life in protecting his. Prayers out to all involved. I just really want to hug the cop.
He was awesome! He first assumed that maybe something was wrong with her before anything else. I feel so sorry for him, I imagine it will continue to bother him that this happened!
boo hoo, police are put in that situation all the time, if you cant handle it dont be a cop, the way he got emotional, i hope he quits being a police officer because that job is not for him
As a Dutch Police Detective i also was involved in a Deathly shooting, i know what it feels like to ends somebody’s life………it’s terrible and it took me 8 months before i started working again. Dear Officer Adams………..The feeling will never go away BUT it will heal and the great feeling about going back to work wil come back. Talk about it as much as possible with your amazing colleagues. They always be there for you just like you are there for them if needed. All this will make you stronger at the end. You did what you needed to do, not just to protect yourself BUT also to protect the people around the scene like the woman in the jeep, you saved lives that that day! Never….NEVER forget that! I wish you all the best👮🏾💪🤗Greetings from the Netherlands, Sam
Horrible situation...Its clear that woman was unstable and was looking to end her life. The fact she wanted to use the last moments of her life to drag others into it is just awful. Watching how the officer reacted and how bad he felt over the bystander brought tears to my eyes. I have a whole new level of respect for our police having to deal with cases like this on a daily basis.
Fr dude. It's so f*cked up when people who are fixed on ending their life would force a cop to do it. Smh.. leaving the officer with no other choice and then furthermore, having to push through that trauma for the rest of their life.
You boot liker, how do you know that he might have killed an innocent person who had a medical situation? I know what you are going to say, she had a gun, but that's what the cops say every time when they are in a bind. Nobody saw that gun>
My heart breaks for this officer. He did what he had to do in a bad situation. And his instant remorse, and concern for the other driver, was heart breaking
He is a good person, and terrible cop, he killed someone in distress. They're supposed to be trained to handle situations *exactly* like this, and this is *not* one of the resolutions. He responded like a regular civilian, with a self-defense firearm.
Hard work? Roofing is hard. Some cops deal with a lot but you guys act like this stuff is happening to them. They choose the job because most cops absolutely love doing it. Quit talking like they’re victims. They know exactly what they’re singing up for.
You realize in moments that him apologizing to them in that jeep was him coming down from the shock of having to shoot someone and having to accept he had ended someone's life
ya i feel bad for the cop too. almost killed the people in the jeep. that would have been a real bummer for him, killing 2 girls. one with mental health problems and the other an innocent bystander
It should haunt him!!! He wasn't in danger!!!! Then trying to ease over a lawsuit with the jeep driver he nearly killed too by being super friendly. That cop is a nutcase.
And people wonder why police react the way they do when people don’t comply and how they often have to react in a split second when put in a hanger out situation. Prayers for this officer
So because police are trained that priority one is to secure the situation so that THE OFFICER is safe, all of the rest of us should just surrender our Constitutional rights and do whatever they demand just so the cops feel better? What is the point of having Rights if we are not allowed to practice them?
Hearing him saying sorry multiple times breaks my heart, hes not in the fault. Hes being so nice and care to her and yet she dragged out her weapon, he had to protect himself. I hope he doesnt get any penalty, hes a good cop.
He was apologizing for putting a round through the innocent womans car, not for what he did. He should have had a better back drop for shooting multiple rounds. A good cop would die before shooting straight at multiple innocent civilians to save himself....
I hope the officer will be ok. He sounds like a very caring person...something that the world needs more of. Condolences to the family of rhe deceased woman

Officer, if you ever see this. I and many people like me believe that you had no choice. I'm so sorry that you were forced into this situation. This was NOT your fault and I don't see what other choice you could make without dying yourself. God bless you and Jess and help you both heal.
Or she was reaching for her wallet beside her gun so that she could identify herself without speaking, which is absolutely legal and within her rights. Idk about Colorado’s gun laws as they changed recently though, I thought open carry was legal in their state… if that’s the case, this officer is a coward and should retire or be fired.
This made my hear jolt. “No choice” because he absolutely didn’t it was him not going home to his family or surviving period. I’m going home to mine at all costs!
Well, it's not his fault for sure. But were I in a situation like this I would suspect the driver was trying to goad me into shooting her and I would refrain from firing until she was actually shooting at me. Riskier .. but I personally doubt she was actually going to open fire.

"unloading" is not what you think. You shoot to neutralize the threat. Sometimes that takes a large volume of fire. Do NOT judge, if you have never had to pull the trigger. I do agree with the rest of your comment though. I feel sorry for the Cop and the "subject".

The officer was clearly in shock. Clearly, the officer is a human being and cares about what just happened. The officer did his job.
He just help a soul take their own life. This could have been prevented at many level. First, who in their right mind would approach a park vehicle in the wrong way; without having to wait for back-ups. Once he spoke to the SUV driver, obviously the woman is delusional and in distressed. That should have been a red flag of sensing a danger of something is wrong. Once he saw a firearm, he immidiately panic and beat feet to the rear of the SUV. He exactly knew where his rounds trajectery would be heading. He immidiately used the rear of the SUV for his own safety, not the Jeep's driver or anybody downrange from him. He didn't want to get hit by incoming cars both direction of traffic. Last resorts, he could have attemted to disarmed the woman at arms reach, but he chose to get an ample amount of distance for engagement of shooting her.

Agree. I live in Colorado and I've been pulled over and had my vehicle approached when I was taking a nap. They wanted to make sure I was okay. One didn't give me a ticket when my registration wasn't updated;I had financial trouble making payments and told the officer.

As a resident of this area, I will safely say that we need more officers like you. Not only were you professional, you also did not hesitate to protect and serve. Like it says in the credo. So glad that you'll live to tell the tale.
Murdering someone by shooting them in the back four times is the opposite of protecting and serving.

I don't think killing someone is a sign of a good police officer..
@Unforseen Truth, everything positive you've written about the police officer is your interpretation and doesn't have to be so. (Him being kind, considerate etc. man.) The fact that he started blazing his gun while not being in eminent danger (yet? Because seeing guns in a glovebox is not being in danger), almost killing an innocent bystander because he didn't checked his line of fire tells me he never should be an example for others who serve. If this was in the Netherlands this cop would be "burned at the stake". Chances are it wouldn't even happen here because they patrol by the two and are trained for 4 years...
Tag her and bag her boys
Police officer's cry for forgiveness from the deceased victim broke my soul! 😢 My dad served 25 years with the police department. I prayed everyday he would come home!😢
He wasn't apologizing to the deceased woman, he said I'm so sorry to the occupants of the Jeep, whose windshield got shattered by one of his bullets. He was heartbroken that he could have accidentally killed someone in that car. Rewatch the video and you'll see.
My heart goes out to this police officer. I hope his PD is offering support.
I think they require counseling after this.
This is why body cameras are so important. You could tell this officer was more concerned about figuring out the situation than escalation. There didn't seem to be any unprofessional behavior. He gave the woman plenty of opportunity to explain what's going on without yelling. He seemed to have correctly identified the threat (the gun). It would be difficult for a lawyer to argue that a cop placed a gun on the scene if everyone's on bodycam.
Time, from your perspective? your reality of time may be very different from someone else's state of mind. If it took all day to get this resolved without shooting her that would have been a better outcome, but we will never know.

@@Jojo-fy2udI guess the better point would be that evil cannot be retained in people of any profession. It’s hard to label all people in a specific line of work as soulless individuals. A large portion, if not most, are decent people with the best intentions. Even some of the ones who aren’t completely morally stable still play a vital role in maintaining a civilized society.
@@youtubekeepscensoringme3357Nazis are caring humans? Really? And it's "were", not we're unless you are a Nazi
@@Jojo-fy2udyou are naive to think ALL police are good people.
I feel sad & empathy for the officer. He was concerned, respectful, kind, & empathetic to the woman prior to shooting her. He was really trying to help her, “you don’t seem like you’ve been drinking, what’s going on?” He acted quickly & unfortunately, he took her life in protecting his. Prayers out to all involved. I just really want to hug the cop.
He was awesome! He first assumed that maybe something was wrong with her before anything else. I feel so sorry for him, I imagine it will continue to bother him that this happened!
She wasnt well
girl just wanted to take herself out and didn't care who she impacted doing it
We need more cops like this…hope he gets through this…I truly believe he’s a good man…
You guys are sheep. Cops kill people, he cried and was sympathetic because her skin tone was the right shade of melanoma
My heart breaks for him to be put in that situation. I hope he continues being a police officer, because I believe he is one of the good ones
The vast majority of cops are the "good ones". Just like every single job in the world, there is always one or two diks in a workplace.
boo hoo, police are put in that situation all the time, if you cant handle it dont be a cop, the way he got emotional, i hope he quits being a police officer because that job is not for him

As a Dutch Police Detective i also was involved in a Deathly shooting, i know what it feels like to ends somebody’s life………it’s terrible and it took me 8 months before i started working again. Dear Officer Adams………..The feeling will never go away BUT it will heal and the great feeling about going back to work wil come back. Talk about it as much as possible with your amazing colleagues. They always be there for you just like you are there for them if needed. All this will make you stronger at the end. You did what you needed to do, not just to protect yourself BUT also to protect the people around the scene like the woman in the jeep, you saved lives that that day! Never….NEVER forget that! I wish you all the best👮🏾💪🤗Greetings from the Netherlands, Sam
Mooie woorden Sam! ❤
...😢❤
@@Sam-w6m5z that job wasn't for you. You have to be strong everyday as a police officer.
Sir you did your job. You have a good heart you legit care about the situation, the deceased and the bystander.
Horrible situation...Its clear that woman was unstable and was looking to end her life. The fact she wanted to use the last moments of her life to drag others into it is just awful. Watching how the officer reacted and how bad he felt over the bystander brought tears to my eyes. I have a whole new level of respect for our police having to deal with cases like this on a daily basis.
I'm pretty sure that woman is a man
Looks like a phone
how is that clear from the video?
Fr dude. It's so f*cked up when people who are fixed on ending their life would force a cop to do it. Smh.. leaving the officer with no other choice and then furthermore, having to push through that trauma for the rest of their life.
Most awful for her. A person whose life was so terrible for her, that she chose death. She chose a bullet instead of help. God help her soul.
I’m so sorry the officer had to endure this. Thank God people are willing to do this job for our safety.
You boot liker, how do you know that he might have killed an innocent person who had a medical situation? I know what you are going to say, she had a gun, but that's what the cops say every time when they are in a bind. Nobody saw that gun>
They are sooo needed 🙏
It's not for our safety
Thank who?😂
@jeremiahmgranados You call this safe? A bullet through the next car is safe? Mental. america is an exceptionally dangerous country,
I feel terrible for that police officer. He seems genuinely concerned and will likely need therapy for PTSD.
As he should when officers are taught to shoot so quickly.
In my case I would go back home drink until I’m drunk and then take my own
@@reggierodriguez6546That’s you man

This is truly heartbreaking. 😢
Hands on her charm, she was preparing. You never know with some people out there.
Thought the same thing.. last thing before checking out.
My heart breaks for this officer. He did what he had to do in a bad situation. And his instant remorse, and concern for the other driver, was heart breaking
I'm so sorry, please don't sue me😅
@@robertrenfrow8621yeah, he did what he had to do, it’s called self defense, unless you think he should have just been shot
@@robertrenfrow8621he sure did
He is a good person, and terrible cop, he killed someone in distress. They're supposed to be trained to handle situations *exactly* like this, and this is *not* one of the resolutions. He responded like a regular civilian, with a self-defense firearm.
@@IBmaster4 well said!
Bless this cop and all the hard work they have to deal with.
Sitting in your air conditioned vehicle eating donuts and pounding your pud before showing up an hour later to a call is such a heavy work load
Maybe the buttloads of bad ones should stop ruining it for the few good ones.
3 people with a negative IQ in a single comment, how crazy is that… ^^^^
Like shutting down small businesses and churches!!! 😂 They enforce draconian orders from unelected bureaucrats
Hard work? Roofing is hard. Some cops deal with a lot but you guys act like this stuff is happening to them. They choose the job because most cops absolutely love doing it. Quit talking like they’re victims. They know exactly what they’re singing up for.
I'm so sorry she forced you into this. Not fair to you. Praying for you sir!
Oh my gosh!
That poor cop.
My heart absolutely breaks for him.
You realize in moments that him apologizing to them in that jeep was him coming down from the shock of having to shoot someone and having to accept he had ended someone's life
it’s what he signed up for.
@@yvngsn0w cops don't sign up to end lives.
@@aadarshroy3216they sign up with the understanding of that possibility.
@@aadarshroy3216 yes they do. It’s the risk that comes with being a police officer. It’s the reason they carry a lethal weapon on them at all times.
When she was silence, she was already contemplating her death and making her final decisions. Truly feel bad for the cop.
Also she's pulling on her cross. Making some serious decisions there
Pure evil
@@Drizzlegallis and a coward for needing to force another person to do what she couldn't herself.

ya i feel bad for the cop too. almost killed the people in the jeep. that would have been a real bummer for him, killing 2 girls. one with mental health problems and the other an innocent bystander
It should haunt him!!! He wasn't in danger!!!! Then trying to ease over a lawsuit with the jeep driver he nearly killed too by being super friendly. That cop is a nutcase.
I would sleep like a baby after this. That women shoulda cooperated
@@carlholland3819So what would you do if someone pulled a gun on you, O wise one
@@grandamWhy is everything political?
And people wonder why police react the way they do when people don’t comply and how they often have to react in a split second when put in a hanger out situation. Prayers for this officer
So because police are trained that priority one is to secure the situation so that THE OFFICER is safe, all of the rest of us should just surrender our Constitutional rights and do whatever they demand just so the cops feel better? What is the point of having Rights if we are not allowed to practice them?

they just can't save someone suicidal?? she was OBVIOUSLY not trying shoot at him!
Really? Why did he take it?
Maybe he hasn't heard of a taser! 😮
Hearing him saying sorry multiple times breaks my heart, hes not in the fault. Hes being so nice and care to her and yet she dragged out her weapon, he had to protect himself. I hope he doesnt get any penalty, hes a good cop.
Unlikely. He was far to clean about it. By the book AF.
He was apologizing for putting a round through the innocent womans car, not for what he did. He should have had a better back drop for shooting multiple rounds. A good cop would die before shooting straight at multiple innocent civilians to save himself....
He needs to be more professional and be better at the compartmentalizing and control his emotions better
@TonyMontanaOG how many years do you have as a cop, and how many times have you had to shoot and kill someone?
@@KingJames-go8pq real.
🙏 you know that cop didn’t wanna do that. Prayers he is recovering mentally from all that went down
She was already suicidal, but what a horrible thing to make him do. So sorry for him and her family.
I agree
@TsunzucchiniTzatzikiSan why do you keep posting this so many times?
She seemed impaired not suicidal.
Then why would she be pulling her gun out while being unresponsive to his concerns? That in itself was a weird action from the woman🤷
He did her a favor, there’s no need for him to feel guilty.
I hope the officer will be ok. He sounds like a very caring person...something that the world needs more of. Condolences to the family of rhe deceased woman
So much sympathy
Condolences? Nah, none whatsoever. If this was a dude, you’d be sitting here disparaging his family for not doing better.
Keep that same energy. Equal or not at all.
@bleachstain9785 Hate how this is true
@@bleachstain9785 , no I wouldn't, so please do no second guess me. The woman had a family and irrespective of how or why she was fatally shot, they should be devastated. No need to celebrate here
@@MusehanaH but when it’s a man you say “the monster deserved to die”, no?
I’m just calling out the double standards here, if you console the perpetrators families regardless of gender, then you’re fine, but if you do anything but that, you’re not.
This is definitely a different breed of law enforcement. He showed _EMPATHY, COMPASSION, PATIENCE, AND CONCERN_ for ALL parties involved. I've never in my life heard an officer apologize NEVER! And he reacted 100% appropriately!
yea i wish all cops were like this man
Exactly!
I would bet this is the rule, not the exception.
he was apologizing to the woman that called
That cop wasn’t the exception. It sounds like you believe he is a unicorn
God bless the Officer! He was heartbroken by what happened. I hope he gets good counseling and heartfelt support. Remember Sir you did your Best. This was not your fault. God bless you and your family and the family of the Lady. ❤️
22 years on the job and this happened to me at 17 years. Stay close to family. Talk it out and don't hold it in. God bless all of you
If you killed one in my family i whoud find with in a week
😢 she was just silent the whole time the officer asked if she was ok. she knew and accepted what was gonna happen.
Thank you for your service, your profession is needed and appreciated
I would keep that to myself, sound proud of it honestly to me
THANK YOU for removing the undesirables for us. You have nothing to feel guilty about
Officer, if you ever see this. I and many people like me believe that you had no choice. I'm so sorry that you were forced into this situation. This was NOT your fault and I don't see what other choice you could make without dying yourself. God bless you and Jess and help you both heal.
Or she was reaching for her wallet beside her gun so that she could identify herself without speaking, which is absolutely legal and within her rights. Idk about Colorado’s gun laws as they changed recently though, I thought open carry was legal in their state… if that’s the case, this officer is a coward and should retire or be fired.
Amen 🙏
This made my hear jolt. “No choice” because he absolutely didn’t it was him not going home to his family or surviving period. I’m going home to mine at all costs!
@@arimocha yea i scrutinize police shootings very heavily but the was a “them or me” moment
Well, it's not his fault for sure. But were I in a situation like this I would suspect the driver was trying to goad me into shooting her and I would refrain from firing until she was actually shooting at me. Riskier .. but I personally doubt she was actually going to open fire.
It’s apparent he’s a good guy who had to do an extremely tough thing. This cop is clearly traumatized. My prayers for all involved and their families.
Still had poor training. USA cops are untrained monkeys lmao

@@KimoKimochii He didn't loose his job, like encryptor6710 mentioned he was put on paid administrative leave. All officers go through that during an investigation. I'm 100% certain he'll be cleared of everything, the only question is how traumatized is he after the incident to want to go back into the streets.
My prayers to this poor officer, who sounded so kind, when dealing with this lady.
This cop deserves so much praise, he’s got so much empathy, and guilt….. I wish more cops were this good of people. This cop handled himself like a good person, then had no choice but to shoot…not unloading like some cops do, then he showed remorse and empathy for what happened, no fault of his but he worried about how others felt and such…. This is protect and serve at its finest. This poor man, ran into a suicidal person, and suicidal people are homicidal risks at same time.
Most of them are very decent people. Get to know a few, and you'll see what I mean. Empathy, kindness, and respect are a two-way street, you have to put out to recieve.
not praise just respect
There are way more good cops than bad.
Most of them are, clown.
"unloading" is not what you think. You shoot to neutralize the threat. Sometimes that takes a large volume of fire. Do NOT judge, if you have never had to pull the trigger. I do agree with the rest of your comment though. I feel sorry for the Cop and the "subject".
That poor officer!!! He was obviously concerned for her well being, polite, professional and trying to help her. Now he’s got to live with this horrible tragedy. God bless him.
He will live ok it's part of the job to shoot at times that's why they carry guns.

That poor woman was waiting to die. She sat there waiting for police, as she refuses to speak back as he speaks to her she takes off her jewelry (should have been the 1st clue) and then does the deed of pulling the weapon. That officer is shattered. His mind is racing. Really feel for him. 💙
Hearing the officer cry made me tear.. my heart goes out to him.. hope he recovers from this terrible experience.
You are both idiots. The cops shot and killed a women that needed help not a bullet. Hold yiur heads in shame.

Unfortunately such a loving officer had to stop and try to help her. God protect this police officer at all cost. He didn't deserve to have the guilt he felt about a situation he had no control over.
I cannot begin to imagine the mental trauma the officer must be going through. I hope he receives all necessary support and counselling.

I absolutely believe this woman had a death wish. Couldn’t get herself to drive the wrong way into traffic, didn’t have the guts to shoot herself, so she elected to make some poor stranger shoot her. Infuriating.
