Not specifically LEO related, but a serious WTF moment in the legal system.
Jurors acquit Stillwater bail agent in shooting death of client | News OK
Video of the shooting. Relevant portion starts around 1:50 or so:

I watched it. It was definitely murder. But it wasnt 1st degree murder. Thats bad if the prosecutor went for that.
1st degree murder involves premeditation. There was none in that video. That was murder. It was not premeditated just from what I saw in that video.
She should be in jail regardless.
She got away with killing someone, but has pretty much guaranteed her son develops a drug problem from PTSD. No winners here.
It is bad for everyone, and she gets to walk because the DA is an idiot.
Continued militarization of the Police State will only result in more stuff like this happening. Before long teachers will be shooting students that are "trouble-makers."

What in the world are you talking about?
First off this woman isnt a cop. A handgun is slightly under the threshold for militarization.
Secondly from the 19th century through the roaring twenties it was standard procedure for bounty hunters to kill you and drag your body to town to claim the reward. Things are much more civilized today.
She lied about the circumstances also. He didn't grab her gun.
