Highjacking one of the top comments to correct the title. This was not a totally random robbery. She came out of her building to break up a fight between him and three other guys that she heard. The other guys walked away but he stayed. She and the man spoke a bit, and as she tried to walk away, he tried to disarm and take her gun. That was when this scuffle happened.

The family is trying to sue for $10.000.000 lmao. They’re not gonna get shit. They are saying it was excessive force when there is video clear as daylight that the man was warned, still tried to wrestle the gun away, then got shot, still struggling, shot again, both fall to the ground while fighting, then shot one last time, this one probably the one in his hand/hip. If that man had gotten to the gun, the officer would be no more in this world…

I'm a little older and the trend I've been seeing in crimes, guns, robberies, fights, police ect is that in most of these videos we see the people never thought 2 stops ahead.
It really worries me because when people are that short sighted bad things happen and most can't deal with it. Instead of thinking down the line they end up on tik tik. This guy's short sight was I'll grab and get away. That didn't work. Now I'll threaten. He never planned for stage 3. He was just focused on his prize and got killed over some pocket change.
No different from people legally carrying a gun wronged or see a crime they think they can actually pull their gun. They end up in jail because they had 0 thought of consequences after. They cry "I didn't mean that" or I didn't know I couldn't do that! '
The best ones I see is people capping other people and they are legally allowed to carry. They claim fear for their lives when the other is unarmed.. Doesn't go well..

Some would say a large portion of his life leading up to this moment was a series of huge mistakes of which he learned nothing. People do not wake up one day thinking,
"This is the day! I'm going to loiter around the street and rob a bitch!".No, this is a culmination of mistakes and circumstances, perhaps some outside of his control, but absolutely not all outside of his control, that lead to this one final mistake.I am sure there were moments in his life where a helping hand, mental health assistance, or better friends could have led to a different outcome. Maybe there were times when he thought to himself, "Do I really want to continue on this path?", and unfortunately, it seems the answer would have been yes.
EDIT: After reading the news article farther down in the comments, it seems he was not just trying to rob her but steal her firearm. She had broken up a fight involving the man, had words with him, and walked away. As she had her back turned, he then said "Give me that gun, bitch!" and tried to take it from her side. My point still stands as this is not normal behavior for an average person.

Agreed. I don't understand how they can argue she "knew or should have known that such force was not necessary in light of the circumstances". He was trying to grab her gun, started with "gimme that gun bitch". He is bigger than her so she doesn't have the luxury of being able to fight him off without the gun. Plus, how was she to know he wasn't gonna shoot her with it?
And he didn't stop trying to grab her gun after she tagged him once, or twice. Fuck is wrong with people?

I have been thinking about that. My uneducated speculation is that after you've been shot, your fight or flight response is off the chart and you just react. The guy probably knew somewhere in his mind that was a bad call, but he was operating on pure instinct. He chose fight and fight he did, regardless of what his mind was telling him.

Getting shot is not like the movies.
It doesn’t knock you down, or stop you- it just slices right through you.
Often it takes a while for someone to physically register the damage that was done, and it can take a while to succumb to the injury, as well.
Edit: obviously different caliber weapons & choice of ammo create differing damage patterns, and have varying levels of stopping power. This wasn’t a shot gun- it was a small caliber conceal carry hand gun.

Adrenaline is the reason why. It has very little to do with the actual bullet and more to do with where you’re hit. Heart, head, spine? Near instant.
Reminds me of the combat footage of a Russian soldier hiding in an outdoor toilet. 2-3 Ukrainians lit his ass up through the door, he made it outside and about 10 feet away before collapsing. Probably took 10-20 rounds before one of them hit one of those 3 spots and he died instantly. Adrenaline is a hell of a thing

Title is kinda misleading:
The private surveillance footage, released by the Civilian Office of Police Accountability, initially shows Leevon Smith arguing with a group of people in the 1300 block of West 90th Street just before 1 p.m. on Jan. 18.
The off-duty officer eventually leaves an apartment building, tries to diffuse the conflict and urges those involved to “calm down.” The other people take off, but Smith sticks around and talks to the officer for just over a minute.
As she turns to head back into the apartment building, the video appears to show Smith reach for the officer’s handgun, setting off a struggle.
“I’ll kill you,” the officer yells before firing two shots.
“You got me. You got me,” Smith says.

CBS even criticized the women for failing to render aid after despite the abuser still being on his feet and attacking the women. If a rape victim ends up shooting their assualter does CBS think they have an onus to render aid despite being traumatized?
