  1. I'll say this: ANYTIME a child's life is threatened and the suspect is clearly being hostile toward the police (especially after it's been confirmed he did so in the past), then the shooting was 100% justified

  2. It was justified because they did everything else before resulting in that and he was still trying to get in which is what led them to have to shoot as he wasn’t going to stop

  3. It’s really sad that this was a justified shooting and they continue to do another investigation when the bad cops get away with DUI’s, no tags on golf carts, giving tickets because they can etc

  4. Some people would say I am a hypocrite for what I am about to say but, in my strongest in, in this case, lethal force was justified. Why? Well, the cops took steps, use non-lethal measures 1st and foremost. The cops had no other choice but to use lethal force when this suspect placed other lives in immediate danger. Immediate threat was not imminent, so they had to use the last option. Bravo 5-O

  5. He was just doing his job to save the lady and baby he did his job.. if I was that lady I to tell the judge that he was doing his job..that man looks like from Mexico ship him back to Mexico

  6. I can here her say this if he was successful getting in, "No thanks officers I got this." At least she was armed herself and from her tone it sounds like she was prepared to use her gun if needed.

  7. mom did everything right, barricading w/ a firearm, calling police and giving full description of situation and surviving the situation w/ her baby. way to go👏👏
