Kim Potter gets only 2 years

Disgraceful. Unless she serves it in maximum security's general population-with "BAD COP" branded on her face-this is a travesty.

Ex-police officer Kim Potter sentenced to two years for fatally shooting Daunte Wright

The former Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, police officer said she was reaching for her Taser during an April 11 stop last year but instead pulled a service weapon.

She actually got 16 months. Get it right.

 

[mak2]

I dunno, I dont think it is impossible she grabbed her handgun instead of the taser.

 

[AMart]

So you think she should be beaten to death in prison for an accident?

It certainly could have been a terrible accident. Training issues?

 

[Missourian]

Probably the best outcome.

She made a mistake but someone died.

Personally I don't agree with putting police in jail for a mistake...but, if she has to go 16 months seems fair.

This hardly seems fair for murder BUT it is a step in the right direction. Not all that long ago she would still be a police officer on the street.

Lol if that was me, i wonder how long i would be locked up.
Our justice system is a goddamn joke.

It wasn't murder, at best is was manslaughter.

Life, is what you or I would have gotten. Yes it is Bull

I consider killing someone accidently manslaughter. She killed over being incompetent.

Not sure if you would ever be put in the same exact situation.

Which is accidentally. She grabbed the wrong weapon. She was still gonna taser his ass, and that was for a legitimate reason from what I've seen of the case.

She shouldn't have served any time....the violent criminal was responsible for what happened.......she made a mistake........she should have been fired, but that should have been it........he started the violence, not her........She should have walked on this....

This is the asshole.....he endangered the lives of at least 2 police officers....

At the time of the shooting, Wright had an open warrant for his arrest related to an aggravated armed robbery, for failure to appear in court, and for charges that he fled from officers and possessed a gun without a permit during an encounter with Minneapolis police in June.[6] Wright also had a restraining order that forbade contact with a woman.[26][27][28]

She definitely needs to spend time in prison, but it wasn't murder, she was convicted of first-degree and second-degree manslaughter.

The one responsible is the criminal who tried to escape and endangered the lives of two police officers.....no more sympathy for the violent thugs who get killed by doing stupid things...
