  1. That woman was sneaky and false.
    For the rest I shut up or I will get banned for life in here. It sounds a bit like this:
    I think its just disgusting how certain people still try to play the victim card in 2024 and try to make us hate the police.

  2. Why is nobody showing the footage from Grayson’s body cam? Don’t get me wrong, I am not defending Grayson at all if that’s what people think I am doing. I just feel like it would be easier to see things from graysons camera.

  3. This cop had no justifiable reason to draw his weapon let alone fire it because:

    -They told her to remove the pot from the stove.
    -Officer Grayson can be heard chuckling as she moves it showing he didn’t feel threatened.
    -She then turns on the faucet most likely to fill the pot. If so, the water was diluted lowering the temp or had evaporated from boiling too long.
    -I rebuke you in the name of Jesus isn’t a threat. It’s said to call on him for protection when you feel the presence of evil.
    -He begins to yell at her, draw his weapon, she apologizes & holds her hands up as she crouches to the ground. She clearly does not have a pot in her hands.
    -He fires at her while she’s cowering as the trajectory of the bullets goes downwards. Meaning if she had it (SHE DIDN’T) she’d have to throw it upward from the ground making it unlikely the water would reach him.
    -He continues to yell drop it even after he shot her in the head proving he was saying it to justify firing.

  4. He was so far away all he had to do was step back some more if he was that scared of a defenseless woman inside her own kitchen. Its crazy that he fired head shots too. Thats a power tripper that thought hed get away with it.

  6. People should remember that Trump has promised to pass laws giving police like this complete immunity against all prosecutions meaning they can never be held accountable.

  7. When he approached she actually stood back up and threw the pot of water at him. Thats when he shot.

    Still his fault for drawing the weapon when he was 15ft away and she simply rebuked him in the nameof Jesus. Maybe he misheard her idk

  8. This animal need to be hold accountable for this action it’s sick and WHITE people always get away with rapes and killings. If his white or she’s white they always talk about they had a mental issues to get away with a lot of crimes. I’m not speaking on every white person but majority are racist.

  9. Ok the description this joke of a newscaster just gave was wildly inaccurate because she literally left major points of context like the officer telling her to go stop boiling water and everything that happened leading up to it. It’s important because there was no escalation and the way they’re telling this story makes it sound like the victim went to her stove for the boiling pot and just started rebuking the officer the name of Jesus, all on her own accord. The officer told her to take the water of the stove and it’s very important in the context of this situation. He is a murderer and needs to rot in prison.

  10. Rebuking means reject, disapprove.

    The officer implied she was going to throw hot water at him so she rebuked his character assassination of her implying she would throw hot water in the name of Jesus. Not mental illness at all!!! She was rebuking his false accusations clearly as she said it after he implied she would throw hot water.

    Also, where was she supposed
    To drop the boiling water…on herself? The pot is hot and she was trying to put it in the sink when the monster shot and killed her.

    Please have common sense when giving commands she’s trying to dump it,
    She panicked since he went to 10 real quick and still had hot water in her hand she couldn’t even dump! Where was she supposed to drop the hot water?
