Ex-officer charged with manslaughter in killing of Daunte Wright

- A former police officer who authorities say shot and killed a Black man in a Minneapolis suburb after a traffic stop has been charged with second-degree manslaughter, a prosecutor said Wednesday.
Brooklyn Center police Officer Kim Potter is charged in Sunday's shooting death of 20-year-old Daunte Wright, Washington County Attorney Pete Orput said.
In Minnesota, second-degree manslaughter applies when authorities allege a person causes someone's death by "culpable negligence whereby the person creates an unreasonable risk, and consciously takes chances of causing death or great bodily harm to another."
Someone convicted of this charge would face a sentence of up to 10 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $20,000.
Wright's death Sunday in Brooklyn Center, which then-Police Chief Tim Gannon said appeared to be the result of Potter mistaking her gun for her Taser as Wright resisted arrest, has roiled a metropolitan area scarred by other police-involved deaths and reignited national conversations about policing and use of force.

So a trained police officer can panic and kill someone, but an untrained civilian must remain calm while a gun is placed in their face...
Apparently.
I mean he had warrants out and was trying to run from the cops for the second time. If he complies he’s still alive.
YES NOW YOU HAVE THAT RIGHT
@@bwestby1 Umm, no. Resisting arrest is not cause for execution. Fuck the police
@@bwestby1 NO EXCUSES!!! SHE KILLED AMAN!!!
If a cop can't tell the difference between a Taser and a handgun then they are not fit to be a cop or be armed. You don't "whoopsie" a human life.
Cops need more funding
Who de-funded the police?
Why did Duante try to escape? This is definitely an unfortunate incident in which both panicked.
I was about to type this.
So true especially if U been on the force for 26 years. U should know the procedure. How SAD
That's bullsh*t, you're an officer, so cops can just say, "oops I thought it was my taser" and get away with murder? NO! They need to make an example out of her so other cops can't get away with this nonsense
She been on the force for 26 years and this whole time she's been hitting that 50/50 on whether its the taser or the gun 💀💀💀💀
Probably because police officers in the U.S. are poorly trained and aren't required to undergo refresher training courses after they graduate police academy.
That's slme good stats.
Lemme take the spread
@@technatezin 26 years bro...don’t matter how you were trained it should be second nature
From what i read, shes actually a negotiator as her main role.
Lol
As a retired Recon Marine, I'm having a really hard time imagining how a 20+ year police veteran can't tell the difference between her 7oz pepper gun and her 27oz Glock on her right hand operable side, and if indeed she was confused, then WTF is this woman doing wearing a badge and a sidearm ????
Exactly I didn’t understand that at all.
I am not a veteran however my dad was in the military for 10+ years and its kinda hard to imagine to not tell the difference between a pepper spray bottle/gun to an actual gun.
Exactly! Period!
*tazer not pepper gun
Absolutely. This is criminal negligence. However the take away here is that had Wright not been behaving like the fool he seems to have been he would still be alive, so he bears a lot of responsibility for his own fate.
Chill out. All she did was take out some trash. This is much ado about nothing.

I just run over a kid with my car, I thought I was driving a bicycle, I need more training for sure
It’s okay, long as he was a minority
Better in a bodybag than in cuffs.
The proud responsible dead father and the lady cop are both heroes.
Please make all sort of stupid excuse and you want to laugh bitterly this was done at what was a police free zone .That is why they didnt want police in that area in the 1st place I
How about ya ran over a kid because you hit the gas instead of the brake? That happens ya know. When is it the damn kids fault for running out in the road in the first place. ya think you should go to jail for the rest of your life?
@@keithcaarver3232 no, but 10 years for sure for being an idiot, also probably ban your license for the rest of your life.
He was an upstanding young man 🤣 ok, I can’t.
I served nine years in The Marines , 17 months in Vietnam with 5th ANGLICO and three with Third Recon , weapons are our specialty just as they are for police , for the life of me I can't mentally digest how a person handling weapons all the time can mistake a 9mm sidearm for a hard plastic taser.
Cops aren't handling weapons all the time, they're not marines in some war zone ffs.
@Leon Wilcox No cops do not handle their firearms daily in the same way a marine does, they're not patrolling in a fucking war zone.
I agree with ya veteran brother. I served in the Vietnam war also.
Woman, emotional confusion
@@Thyalwaysseek this is the truth. And a lot of them don't even train in shooting their firearms .
She’s been a cop longer than Duante lived.
Yes. That's what I said when I heard this tragedy
and? He resisted and put her in the situation where she felt threatened. That triggered her reaction
@@firstlast9731 exactly! It was an accident but it could of all been avoided if he wasn’t a dumbass
@@firstlast9731 Thats what Taser's are for....
@@firstlast9731 wasn't aware resisting was a crime worthy of death with no due process.
Yo, the discrepancy in the 2nd degree manslaughter penalties..The guilty party can go from possibly having to serve 10years to only paying a $20,000 fine..That is insane..
Unfortunately, Minnesota does not have the death penalty.
@@marshamarshamarsha4567 People don't get the death penalty for manslaughter..lol.

🤣😂🤣
@@leothalion3983 it’s funny when I forget to press the brake instead of gas pedal but the officer can even use that as a defense in a trial and sounds very normal right?

That justifies her murdering him when she supposedly meant to taser him?

There’s been some cases of that they do go to prison but don’t get life or more than 10 years.
Especially a cop...it would be murder.
Not necessarily.
@@ed52369 lol what are talking about?
If a nurse gives the wrong medicine to a patient and it kills them, the nurse loses their license and is removed from their job. It's not simply "a bad mistake".
But they don't face prison
And they cop is no longer a cop. And she is being tried with manslaughter. You’re point??? What about Duante resisting arrest? He wouldn’t have been shot had he not resisted arrest.
thank you gang
Poor analogy. Humans make mistakes. Search UA-cam for "cops accidentally shoots himself" and there's loads and that's just the one's caught on camera obviously.
@@SandraMartinez-gv1yf yeah he shouldn't have resisted but does this justify the police use of gun and eventually killing of Duante? And she did resign after the fact but she could still be hired as a police in a different town/state.
A stronger sentence needs to be made, this is too lenient!
Well looking at the video she held that gun pointed long enough to see it was her firearm and not her taser. smh
@Jesse Browning So Daunte's life is merely a punchline for you?
26 years on the police force and doesn’t know her left from her right.
Her primary role is a police negotiator. She is primarily a talker. This may have been the first time she has actually used a weapon in real life situation. She negotiates with criminals normally rather than shoots them. In the heat of the battle she grabbed the wrong weapon. This isn't the first time a police officer has made exact same mistake. A person was killed in 2010 by a cop using a gun instead of taser. It happens. It shouldn't happen but it is a stressful situation and you only have a split second to react. The cop in 2010 I was told got a 2 year sentence.
@@almac9203 Um... she is a training officer. Meaning, she teaches recruits how to use firearms.
@@deekbosko she was training someone on how to use weapons but that doesn't mean that was her primary role nor does that mean she has actual front line experience of ever using a weapon. People are assuming that she was a beat cop for 26 years when we don't know if she has even fired a gun outside of training situations. If you watch CNN they had an expert comment that it is far easier then you would imagine to grab the wrong weapon whilst under stress.
Wright doesn’t know what is wrong or right neither. Don’t resist arrest and you still be alive. Waste of taxpayers money again. Just like Floyd
@@mikepetpachan647 I agree about the right and wrong, but George floyd didn't resist arrest. I need to know the sources you got that from.
No matter of his background. His life was still taken. No matter of his parking tickets, no matter of how many mistakes he made in his life. That still does not give another human being the authority to take someone else’s life. If that’s the case just imagine how many of y’all would be died right now.

This. You don’t have to be an upstanding citizen to deserve to live. Regardless if he was or wasn’t he was a human being
I wonder if he had not drove off - if he would have survived? What a bad series of decision making by everyone. Very sad.
He would be alive if he was not doing the wrong thing. Isn't that what our parents always told us. Don't go looking for trouble. Sad but this is life and this is what happens when you're up to no good.

Thank god for bodycams! Just the beginning. Wait to real A.I. hit the streets!
The fact they they use a photo of her smiling and young as if she were a rookie irks me
Yeah reminds me of this one news site who on the same day with the same crime has completely different photos of the black people (mugshots) and white people (college photos).
Reminds me of that time Charlie Chester was trying to take me to dinner.
What irks me is how this could have been avoided if he didn’t try to run from the cops
@@chickenman7342 - what do you expect? You don’t run they put you in the prone position with 3 grown men on top of you and you die and if you run they shoot you in the back.
Running away isn’t a death warrant. It’s supposed to add time to you already existing charges. Not be a death penalty.
Officer A: should we chase him
Officer B: too much work
Pulls out gun.
Tothetop, your logic is unfortunately flawed. What all those cases you mentioned have in common is resisting arrest/fleeing.
I’ve been stopped by police and I know other people who have too. I’m sure you know at least 1 person who has been stopped by the police as well.
We’re all alive. Know why? Because we didn’t resist/flee.
Quit saying “cops are killing us because our color” That’s simply not true because every black person that has ever been stopped by the police would be deceased.
If you feel like you’re being mistreated here, you can always “go back home”
I’ll pay for your ticket.
I love how people like to put criminals on a pedestal.
She was on the job longer than Dante was alive! And yet, she didn't know the weight and feel of her own gun. Yeah right! .... Boy, the hate is deep....🖤
No consequences, so anyone in goon company can.
The hate or stupidity is indeed deep regardless she will go to jail for manslaughter
Would it help if you knew what the arrest warrant was for? You sexually assaulted held prisoner, and pointed a gun at a woman's head threatening to kill her if she did not give him her $820 rent money after she was allowing him to stay in her house.
He skipped trial, after making a $100,000 bail
The warrant that they tried to arrest him for was that. He was already violent and dangerous person and, since he had bail, he was also arrested for having a gun, which he was not supposed to have.
@@christopherronaldhouse6313 your comment shows your ignorance.

26 years and you ain't see them Glock sights on your taser
After 26 years she knew she had her gun and not a taser. She followed verbal procedure but with her gun. She would have had to switch the safety off to fire the gun. A taser is a bright fluorescent color worn on the opposite side of your gun. She did verbal command to cover her own behind
No officer has the safety on there gun
And that Brother was just trying to get away, right? Well, ya just don't do that unless ya want to decide your fate........"He was just trying to get away". Well, of course he was, all CRIMINALS wish they could.
Glocks do not have a safety
amazing how many "arm chair" quarterbacks are responding.
He was a criminal, first choking a woman while robbing her, also shot a guy in the head , next shot someone in the leg ,and y'all treat it like he was a saint ,KARMA
26 years on the department and you can't tell the damn difference between a taser and a handgun 😵🤔😡
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html....
Right And apparently she trains new officers as well so there’s no excuse for her
NO EXCUSES FOR THAT RIP DAUNTE WRIGHT
Why she jumped in to deploy taser she was not even the officer effecting the arrest??? Why she comes with her weak asss voice bawling taser taser ??? Why???
and you have never picked something up by mistake eh...
If you don't charge murderers for outright murder you're never going to really change anything.
Murders are harder to prove. Proving someone was reckless vs intentionally killing someone
If you say this was murder you’re an idiot and only going to cause more problems. Overcharging them when this is obvious manslaughter will only get them acquitted and stoke tensions.
@@loply9724: Manslaughter might be an overcharge in this situation. It looks like negligent homicide to me.
Regardless nothing is ever gonna change that’s the sad truth people don’t realize a lot of things
his scary ass didnt want to go to jail
If they don't know the difference between a gun & a Taser, maybe they should have neither.😳 she was training another officer...this was a murder...You can't kill someone & says ooops😳😡
Nothing about this incident could possibly be construed as murder by anyone of reasonable intelligence.
I would take this comment more seriously if you just took out the emojis. This is a serious topic, keep it that way.
She made a tragic mistake. She will pay with her career being over and possible jail time. But she is not a criminal. The victim was wanted on a warrant for beating a woman during a robbery. He had other prior offenses He resisted arrest. He was a criminal.
Yeah, the cop who shot Walter Scott yelled taser, taser, taser also.....then he fired 8 bullets into his body.
Was it actually 8 times?
Just read how his defense attorney is now saying he screwed up and didn't serve his client (Slager) to the best of his ability. Imagine sacrificing your ENTIRE career for a murderer lol. Wow.
Completely different situation and circumstances.
And he is serving 20 years... your point is?
And he went to jail for second degree murder. Your point is?
Now we know why that Army LT was so afraid to get out of his SUV
Not the same. Completely two different scenarios. Both had shit out comes though. Glad that cop got fired. What an azzhole
Right...
Fear or not--I have never seen continued resistance to the police that turned out for the better. Some didn't get the memo I guess.
Why? Cuz female cops can't figure out if she's holding a taser or a gun? Or white women hate black men? That's racist!
um, why didn't he just comply? He wouldn't have died if he just complied
26 years as a cop, gun always in the location on her belt. “Accidentally” grabs gun instead of taser, removes safety, fires. Right. Great defense.
@sam ridges I was wondering weather the weapon involved had a safety on it ,excuse my lack of knowledge on fire arms ,so how does this weapon work from it being in her belt and taking it out to fire is it just pulling the trigger, I imagine the weapon would need to cocked to fire first round ,but again I have no knowledge on fire arms the only weapon I've fired is a sa 80
@sam ridges OK thanks mate will look
@Seventh Account I can assure you I'm not stupid ,yes I believe she did it on purpose lots of police officers have used same excuse about mixing up tasser and gun
@Seventh Account also why did she say shit I shot him by mistake while he was driving off if she was allowed to shot someone who was trying to get away
@Seventh Account Duh she did it on purpose and mouthed her excuse for the purpose of the camera she pre planed her excuse like when police say stop resisting when the person isn't resisting just for the camera you fucking clown
Where's the footage of the mostly peaceful protests? The one where one of your employees caught a full water bottle to the head and the rest kicked out? Zero credibility, you stoke the fire but run from it.
Can a doctor mistake your heart for you appendix and remove it, thus killing you?
Can a dentist rip your eye out instead of your molar?
Asking for a friend.
If you do some research you would be shocked at the amount of people that are killed by doctors negligence. Most doctors walk away Scot free with their insurance paying off the victim's family.
No - that is why she has been charged.
A doctor is rarely rushed to make such a decision. The situation escalated quickly.
👏👏👏
Dentist have pulled the wrong tooth many times.

Do you know what precinct means? Just cause precinct and pension start with the letter P doesnt mean they're related. Holy smooth brain it means she doesn't want to taint the reputation of the people who work with her for her mistake. Google is free
@@themedialies6613 it doesn't matter if you cant tell the difference between a gun and a taser and you been on the force for 26 years there no excuses she should have known better
@@themedialies6613 do you really think this wouldn’t have happened if he “didn’t run?” Someone just died and the best argument is that if they don’t run and comply, they won’t get killed. So many times we have seen those who do comply and still get killed. Hell, we even see those who aren’t doing anything and still get killed. When you have a gun in your face, people sometimes have a flight or fight response. Everyone doesn’t reply or event think the same way, regardless, a young man died at the hands of a trained professional. There is no excuse. Comply or not has nothing to do with it.
@@themedialies6613 you’re so ignorant it’s laughable. When you are targeted by a group of individuals you expect someone to act calm in the face of death huh? It’s a natural emotion to fear for your life when you expect to be murdered. Have some compassion for once in your life.
This is rough, and either way that officer is going to have to live with that fuckup for the rest of her life
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html..
The life she still has.
Yeah the rest of her LIFE
It’s a dangerous job, but I’m surprised a seasoned cop panicked like that. I don’t believe she meant to kill the young man, not Like Derek Chauvin did to George Floyd. But the result was the same and if she is a good person, any punishment will not compare to having to live with this mistake.
Police-man DO NOT care shit about people. No matter whether good or bad person.
Dude was a criminal. Acting all gangsta till he met his fate
Not one person police shot was a law abiding citizen...
If a Doctor, Nurse or Paramedic pushed the wrong drug resulting in the death of a patient they would be charged with the same.
CNN exposed once again.. How people can still follow this is beyond me.
ua-cam.com/video/9faQkIA6YNU/v-deo.html
Not true!
No they wouldn’t.
But would they be labeled a racist?
It's actually rare for a doctor in residency to _not_ mistakenly kill ay least 1 person via a stupid mistake
Keep charging them until they realize they can no longer get away with murder because of a badge.
and you want to de-fund the police more? When training was the clear cause of this accident. People like you are the exact reason why these incidents occur. Why would you hold the police responsible, and demand action. Without encouraging these criminals from breaking the law to begin with? So you condone crime, but not police action! Complete oxymoron!
She shot him because she wanted to. This is no accident.
Correct title “Criminal with warrants accidentally shot after resisting arrest” and why don’t they show the real pictures of Dante, the ones with him waving guns around, smoking weed, holding money up in the air like a wannabe gangster.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 well said
Because Daunte was such a “model citizen”
More public servants being accountable is a good step forward.
manslaughter is bare minimum for killing someone
if we'd only start holding criminals accountable, it would be a giant leap
Before she had told the other officers to go in separate cars and to turn off their body cams. She knew what she was doing. There's no way a veteran and instructor would mistake a gun for a taser.
May I ask for evidence? Bodycams showing that? Not trying to fight, I just want to learn what I can about this
As a mother of 2 sons, I would not care if her pulling her gun was an accident. She's guilty of murder because the situation should have never happened at the hands of 3 cops. They lost control and blew it out of proportion. This young man should be alive and unharmed.
20 thousand for killing someone? 😳 WTF is that all we are worth? SAYS WHO???
26 years of being a cop-longer than the life of the man who was murdered-and you *accidentally* pull your gun instead of your taser? What a joke.
Would you trade places with Duante? I bet not.
@@abs2ray what does that got to do with the cop on the force for 26 years getting a gun and taser confused?
@T Man Won isn't it funny that you had to check? Someone got killed and you're trying to be funny. What an imbecile.
@@abs2ray what the fuck does that have to do with my comment? Starting shit in a UA-cam comment section for no reason.
Terrible outcome for a situation that should never have gotten to that point. A moment of lost focus by a police officer, and another case of a man resisting arrest. He goes quietly and hes probably already out of jail.
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html...
The only loss here is of a dedicated officer's career.
@Anthony Poe that’s the problem, always the other persons fault right. Just making the observation that both parties mishandled the situation. Not taking sides here. But by all means feel free to let your hate out!
@Anthony Poe tell me im not right if that man just lets the police put the cuffs on and gets in their vehicle? You act like the cops didnt have a reason to pull him over and arrest him. That man made a very bad decision, and that decision alone put in motion the actions that lead to his death. Now im a combat vet, been in multiple firefights back in 2004-2005 in Iraq. Under high stress situations people will jam up. That officer, let her fear of the situation overwhelm her motor skills to the point she just drew her weapon instead of her taser. I mean, thats got poor training all over it. 26 years on the force just means she thought she was too good to train and it shows. Just another bad situation that could have been avoided.
@Anthony Poe lol! Hey bro my life is everything I’ve wanted. Like I said in my first post to you, keep on hating and see how far it gets you in life. You still think Black Lives Matter actually helped the black community dont you? I didn’t see the ceo buying 500k plus houses in black neighborhoods! Cheers man, hope only the best for ya!
This could b me u or ur son dont be the idiots saying he shoulda complied really sad shit man dude had a son i thank god for keeping me here with my daughters rest in heaven Daunte
Congratulations to Daunte Wright on being the (excuse the pun) "latest" recipient of Law Enforcement's "Darwin Award", compliments of Officer Kimberley Potter. Thank you Officer Potter. Job well done. And thank you Daunte. It couldn’t have happened to a more deserving little punk.
He shoulda complied.
This all could of been avoided had he complied
@James Weatherbee what does his personal life on social media have to do with a police officer ending his life he didn’t get shot behind wtf he does on his face book page💀🤚🏽.
DAUNTE WRIGHT IS NO.SAINT AND HE.IS IN HELL FOR HIS CRIMES, I AM GLAD THE COP TOOK HIM OUT
So no one is going to acknowledge the fact this young man, who resisted arrest, had warrant because he held a lady at gun point and robbed her for some money in her own home .No ones going to acknowledge that?? So if your about to arrest someone, who was known to carry weapons, who used them to assault others , and they make a dive into the car wouldn’t you at least think the worse ? No one?
You're trained to use one hand for your firearm and the other for the taser. You never carry both on the same hip. Period
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html..
That depends on the department's policy, and training regime.
And you're supposed to be taught to cooperate when being pulled over,oh bad parents all over are celebrating
@@nancyc6836 comply or resist if your black your dead if your white your a patriot standing up for your rights storming the capital and trying to kill heads if state and the cops just let you in no problem
This is simply a lie
No one in their right mind would become a police officer in today’s world.

Thats what they want......
I sure as hell wouldn't either. Not unless I wanted to go to prizon
100% agree
Wrong. There will always be people who want to inflate their egos and have authority and power over others. We need to stop hiring people with these characteristics and start hiring people who actually want to protect and serve.
Daunte was a terrible person he choked an innocent woman😐
Didn’t obey orders too tried to run
yeah no one can try to defend him if he did bad as a person
Death shouldn’t have been his punishment still hun
@@frankocean99 he tried to run and he had a past with illegal gun possession so he could have had guns in the car the police officer didnt know

This is a taser, this is a gun, one is for fighting and one is for fun.
Sue the city for $27,000,000 She held the gun for 2 to 3 seconds before she fired i saw that on the body cam and the gun is on one side and the teaser is on the other side. 26 years REALLY !

ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html..
Don't know about the black population, but we Mexicans teach out kids to respectfully follow commands, answer questions, and never resist arrest. Wonder if that is why we see far less Mexicans (even though we outnumber blacks by a huge percentage in the population) getting shot by the police?!
@@pedrothemexican3360 Hey Pedro, You Did See This Guys Mother, Correct? Perhaps you want to rephrase your question. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@pedrothemexican3360 - Don't care what you teach your Mexican or white (your true likely identity) children. The police shoot far less Mexicans and far less whites simply because the police have less hate for Mexicans and whites. Police shoot who they hate the most - behavior is irrelevant. If resisting behavior was an issue, then thousands of white males would have been shot Jan 6th at the Capitol Building...capiche taco brain? lol
@@pedrothemexican3360 if you look on the website for his jurisdiction, they sent the court notice to the wrong address and they put a warrant out for him because he didn’t show up.
What a cute picture of the officer. You almost want to feel sorry for her. I bet if it was a black officer they will find the most menacing picture.
I’m surprised they didn’t place a halo over her head to make her look like an angel.
This country needs better parenting more than it needs better policing. The government isn't a good substitution. Truth hurts.
She shouldn't have even interfered it inhibited the other officer who already had a bit more control over him when he was resisting.
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html.
I thought so too, skinny kid, big male officer was handling him.
I thought it was weird also. Daunte seemed fine until she came over. It's like he freaked out and tried to jump back in his car.
White women can’t leave anything alone. Always have to insert themselves unnecessarily into every situation.
She was training another officer
She’s been getting away with little to no training. Just signing off on her training. It now has caught up with her.
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html..
BINGO!!!
Naww it’s just the practicing of her lying caught up with her..
Good point, also how does a Union boss, with a 26 year career get stuck with traffic duty?
Would it help if you knew what the arrest warrant was for? You sexually assaulted held prisoner, and pointed a gun at a woman's head threatening to kill her if she did not give him her $820 rent money after she was allowing him to stay in her house.
He skipped trial, after making a $100,000 bail
The warrant that they tried to arrest him for was that. He was already violent and dangerous person and, since he had bail, he was also arrested for having a gun, which he was not supposed to have.
If there's anything that people actually watching this can learn it's to not put yourself into a similar situation.
Unable to tell a taser from a pistol? And firing at the body instead of legs or tires ?
why are they showing pictures of her smiling and having a good time. why don't they show the mug shot like they do with defendants who aren't cops.
ua-cam.com/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/v-deo.html..
26yrs with the force, yet she couldn't differentiate between taser and a gun.
Lack of training, lack of psych therapy, bad recruitment etc etc
She knew that she's got the bodycam was on ,that is why she yelled taser
Here’s an idea...resist arrest, try to get back in my car, and drive off!
Any cop with over 20 years experience should know the difference in weight between a fully loaded pistol and a taser.
*handgun
Yes, but Duante was also putting up a fight for no reason. She didn’t do it on purpose and unfortunately, the whole incident is sad
How did she not know?
She still aimed it and pulled the trigger!!!!!
She's a woman, it was a stressful situation. Haven't you missed something when you were under stress?
@@Sincerit Dude her gender is not important.
It was muscle memory she reacted and grabbed her gun because she trains to use her weapon effectively. Her brain was off and then she killed him by mistake. Not until after she shot him did she think about what she grabbed.
Still gotta aim and pull a trigger on a taser too!
when is the last time that you shot a gun ? a tazer? I doubt you have ever shot either. stfu you clown. It was a justified killing that was accidentally carried out.
How in the hell she gonna say that it was a mistake? THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PISTOL AND A TASER.
1 mistake in 26 years. Nearly flawless. How many chances do we give to criminals?
⛔ I could understand how she made that mistake, I sometimes get inside my car from the passenger side, then I suddenly realize the steering wheel is on the other side❗
😂😂😂
Damn..🤣🤣
lol
Me too
No fuck the excuse there is no room for fucking excuses she is a vet 26 yrs gtfoh
Unfortunately for Kim Potter, there are no whoops-a-daisies when it comes to ending someone else's life, inadvertently or not.
She’s being charged. Charged doesn’t mean jail. It Duante also Reid to escape. Stop fighting cops. You have more power being taken in and getting a lawyer. Shit happens when people try to resist arrest

There's literally hundreds of cases of cops whoops-a-daisies shooting themselves. If they can accidentally shoot themself they can accidentally shoot anyone. Look at any military in the world, soldiers are always have accidents with guns. It happens. People have whoopsies with cars, equally as lethal as guns. How many car accidents a year in the USA? That's a whole lot of whoopsies, eh?
@@SandraMartinez-gv1yf There's nowhere in the Constitution where it says resisting or trying to escape is punishable for death...above all where there was no need to arrest him for a tag. Your argument is insane. He didn't even know why he was being arrested.
On top of that she's a 26 year veteran on the force and was training someone that day therefore she's rightfully expectes to be the adult in the room and not "panicking". Daunte shouldn't have tried to escape but we don't always make the righy decisions when we're scared...the cop should know better and has zero excuse.
@@SandraMartinez-gv1yf ‘Shit happens when people try to resist arrest.’ In a country where there are literally hundreds of millions of guns in civilian hands, and the police force carries guns as standard, yeah, shit does happen. Regularly. Way too regularly. What a volatile, dangerous and downright weird place the USA is.
@@trevorbyrne4668 If he didn't resist, he'd still be alive. That doesn't take away from what happened.
Before we render judgment on this officer a review of her 26 year career is in order.
Worst field training officer ever. How do you make a mistake like that after 26 years on the job? Sadly her life sentence of knowing what she did will be ongoing for years after she gets out of jail.
This happens more often than you would think.
How do you know what I would think ?
I guess it only makes the news when someone actually dies.
more whites are killed by cops but cnn dont report
@Jack Nicholson its happened over 10 times, heres a couple examples:
*"former Oklahoma reserve deputy who fatally shot an unarmed black man in 2015 when he mistook his firearm for a stun gun was released from prison Thursday after serving less than half of his four-year sentence."
*"Police officer Thomas Shrum attempted to subdue Blount with his Taser gun. Unfortunately, he inadvertently pulled out and discharged his sidearm, a nine-millimeter pistol. Blount suffered a wound to his left buttock."
@@popculture70 a few people have been killed this way.
*"former Oklahoma reserve deputy who fatally shot an unarmed black man in 2015 when he mistook his firearm for a stun gun was released from prison Thursday after serving less than half of his four-year sentence."
I could accept it if it was a rookie and it was her first day. But 26 years.
A little trigger happy
Just because she's a 26 year veteran that doesn't mean she's Dirty Harry. Do you know how many veteran officers never once draw their gun in their entire careers?
@@44excalibur someone said that her primary role was a police negotiator not a front line beat cop. She might not have fired either weapon before.
@@almac9203 Exactly my point.
@@almac9203 she was a FTO at the time so this doesn’t make since
@@jone1700 she can have a secondary role. It isn't everyday that there is a need for police negotiator. Rather than sit around doing nothing in a down time she helps with training rookies when there aren't negotiations.
