I hope this serves as a wake-up call. I feel for the officer and her children. USE THE CROSSWALK! I would never put my children in danger like that, especially at night.
Everyone saying it’s the mother’s fault , something wrong with you. Her partner saw them crossing the street , why didn’t she ? Hmmm maybe she wasn’t paying attention.. so let’s stop blaming her . She’s gone now and her kids had to witness that. Let’s pray for them instead !
Why they were in the middle of the road standing at night… That road is dark and sometimes you dont see people or items till you literally in front of them… They weren't crossing… They were standing…
Looks a lot like they were just standing there just talking and not crossing. Even a regular person driving their car wouldn’t had seen them standing in the middle of the road in the dark. Plus, did those people standing there not see the oncoming car headlights?
Two officers and none of them noticed them are you serious? Both should be held accountable smh.. yes they shouldn’t have been in the middle of the road . But still wtf….
In the officer’s defense: why in the hell were those people standing/talking in the middle of the road like they’re invisible? I say the officer shouldn’t get a harsh punishment but not so light since god only knows how she didn’t see them.
This one's kinda 50/50, this version in the video seem's brightened up compared to the original ones i saw. Im not sure if i would have been able to see them or not cause the video quality was so crappy. Shouldn't have been standing in the street as a group though. Kinda hard to tell who's really at fault here very sad
If you're walking at night where there's traffic you should be wearing reflective clothing. Also, you should cross streets quickly. You have to assume no one sees you. I'm not saying the police officer is not at some fault. He appears to be speeding. This sounds like a very sad incident.
Personally, I would be a wreck going back out on duty. I can't imagine what she is thinking now and the guilt of the accident. My heart goes out to that family! Torn apart and seeing the video after they publication released it.
While driving in a populated area, you must drive safe and pay atention. The car is a weapon and must be treated with care, otherwise any pedestrian mistake can be fatal. Like it or not, the car driver is to blame in most cases, the driver must antecipate the possibility of the mistake of the pedestrian.
NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS IT WAS THE FEMALE COP'S FAULT FOR DRIVING TOO FAST AND NOT SEEING THE PEOPLE CLEARLY CROSSING THE STREET AND NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO WHERE SHE WAS GOING. ANYTHING MORE TO SAY IN A DEROGATORY MANNER ABOUT THE VICTIM IS JUST PLAIN IGNORANCE AND HATRED BECAUSE SHE WAS A BLACK WOMAN AND NOT A WHITE OR HISPANIC ONE.
That makes it worse. If she jumped in front of the patrol vehicle at the last second then the accident was unavoidable. But if she was just standing there that means the cop had plenty of time to see them & stop.
That mf was drunk or just wanted to run over someone, once again yall we spin the block on someone who looks like you but will let the police handle something like this 🤦🏿♂️
It's impossible to believe she couldn't see a crowd of people in the street when her partner was yelling in her ear to stop . The yelling in the ear should have been a signal that something was very wrong and she should stopand investigate.
People in the comments acting like if they randomly hit a person standing in the middle of the street they wouldnt get arrested and jailed for manslaughter. But ahhhhh if a Cop does it then all blame goes to the victim it seems lmao
Wow a lot of the comments are gross A criminal getting shot and then being defended by the black community is WAY different than a MOTHER getting mowed down in the street by a cop who wasn’t paying attention I guess racism isn’t as dead as I thought

I get blacks are entitled, but just standing in the road?

Do black people just like hanging out in the middle of the street at night? I don’t get it 😂
More lawsuit hunters.

People commenting who obviously didn’t watch this segment. Bus station..needed to cross road…dropped something while crossing…hit by HPD
I feel bad about what happened but why was they in the road.
That was on purpose
Sad but walking in middle of the road bot wise, my city every week happens

It looks like the cop wasn't doing the speed limit
Sad situation. But that isn’t the officers fault. 3 people standing in the middle of the road at night probably looking for what they dropped.

Probably on his effin phone
The negligence the driver displayed is astounding. What was she looking at if not the road directly in front of her?
Didnt even brake. Not at all😮

She crossed a street without a crosswalk. Big deal. Unless she jumped in front of the patrol vehicle at the last second, it’s the cop’s fault.

Terrible driving. Doesn't matter if they're on the street.
Probably illegal aliens.. they dont know how to walk

It’s kinda the family’s fault for being in the middle of the road :/

I was able to see them on the road and it’s a cam video how do you not react to the passenger yelling
Ridiculous jail and sue terrible
He could stop he should have seen them sad Lord 😢😢😢😢😢
Texting n driving
this could have been prevented, if just wearing your safety vest
They,ll investigate themselves and find no wrong doing.
So somehow yall only see her standing in the streets we you can clearly see there crossing & she was helping her daughter with the bags
Wow a lot of the comments are gross
