I'm going to get downvoted into oblivion....
Bad weapon discipline and bad trigger discipline is a jailable offense more often than not.
As a civilian I'd absolutely go to jail for this.
It's tragic and maybe the judge will consider the fact that it's clearly an accident in sentencing, but when you screw up this bad, the responsible gun owners don't have to pretend this is cool.
Well you wouldn't be trying to apprehend a resisting person with a warrant for violent crimes?
Trigger discipline has nothing to do with it. Poor training does, she thought she was firing a tazer at the douchebag, her trigger discipline seems fine as she pulled the trigger as intended. Her poor training and inability to tell the difference between her loaded firearm and a taser is the only thing she is guilty of.
You know how it would not have happened in the first place? If he didn't resist arrest.
