[@ponchis1966]

Sorry they could have stopped her. I’m sure the person that got ran into head on at 50 mph felt protected and served. They could have boxed her in well before she got onto the freeway and actually protected people. She was literally stopped on streets, not moving!!! They crashed into each other trying to get out of the way. They allowed her to crash into civilians and instead of protecting them they got out of the way. Way to go

[@p.c.9714]

From a local newspaper: "The pursuit began in a Venice neighborhood after a dispute escalated dramatically around 4am at 3rd and Rose Avenue. The woman, reportedly living out of her van, had been disturbing neighbors throughout the night by playing loud music, screaming, and throwing objects. Despite multiple calls to the police, the situation only intensified. “She was up all night doing drugs, appearing to be on something, and acting erratic in the middle of the street,” a local resident said. “They could have arrested her right there.” This is pure LAPD incompetence. ☹️

I just feel like they did the best they could in an extremely unpredictable situation being recorded and broadcast to the world. And again please correct me if I’m wrong, but if any of them take action that isn’t pre-approved by their superiors then there’s a chance they could land in trouble afterwards my taking unauthorized action or something along the lines of that right?

@@gillesrenaud6926wrong. Very wrong. In situations like this they can’t do anything unauthorized my their superiors in command watching and advising from the feed in their police helicopter. That’s why they have to wait until there’s no one around to do a pit maneuver, pull back when a suspect starts to engage unless they have permission to engage back, and even in other chases where suspects crash and DONT get out of the car, they can’t rush the car and immediately get the suspect out. They have to take cover, hold the suspect at gunpoint as they repeatedly yell at them to get out of the car on their own. Then after like 5-10 minutes they shoot out the window to get better eyes in the vehicle/get suspects attention/clearer communication. THEN they slowly approach the vehicle with the lead officer carrying armor and then get the suspect out of the vehicle. They absolutely cannot do whatever they want. Especially while the news helicopter is literally capturing their every move. Obviously if the helicopter wasn’t there and they didn’t have body cameras it would be a different story. But that’s clearly not the case here.

Why arrest her?.. crime is legal in California she' knows DA Gascon will release her anyways...........

They’ll get sued if they are more aggressive so either way they can’t win! Thank the current government for that

[@Qazwsx2380]

The question which should be asked is why would you allow this person to get access to the freeway. It appeared multiple opportunities to stop the vehicle when people were not around based upon the video. Instead of having empty park cars destroyed, you now have people on the freeway injured.

[@matthewwade920]

Is it me? Why did the cop at 5:03 drive his vehicle out of her way and allow her to make a right turn? It even looked like she ordered him to do it out her window and he complied.

[@brandonlefton1346]

Lmao, he complied with her demands.

This went on more than 20 minutes longer than Arkansas highway patrol would allow it.

[@wing-it7596]

20 Minutes Longer ? ASP would have had this wrapped up in the first 15 minutes.

[@mrchris9734]

The police are supposed to protect and serve. Then why did the police car at the end, who was holding up traffic, move out of the way like a selfish scared coward instead of running into the van to prevent them from hurting the public??

[@MikeNay]

they thought it was Protect and Swerve out of the way

[@matthewmartin1852]

Police unions have literally fought and won in court that they DON'T need to protect the public. ACAB

Like how that cop at the end said, "NOT ME!!!" and got out of the way so she could ram the civilian cars.

[@randy8324]

Haha that's what I was saying too. Only in California. I bet the cops need a court order and the governor's sign off before they can put spike strips down. And if other cars start showing up, they'll probably have to call it off and let her go.

5 o'clock in the morning. People woke up around 4 am to go to work and hustle to feed their familiy making sacrifices. Now they have to go through their insurance claims and deal with NO CAR to go to work!! All because these clowns LAPD allowed it!!

[@mango8918]

I read thru many of the comments and most of them were more critical of the LA cops - and justifiably so - than they were of her. They were cowards and didn't control the situation. One maniac, driving the way she was, had a hell of a lot more potential to maim and kill someone by being let free to do as she wanted. If the cops took her out at the beginning of the chase instead of dodging her and letting her chase them, many fewer people would have been impacted. Disgusting!

[@adrianrussell580]

Has to be the worst display by LAPD ever….

[@thisisme3238]

[@Walter_Sobchak_43]

...And I just saw the crash. CHP and LAPD should be ASHAMED of themselves. I hope whoever was involved in the crash sues every department involved. They could have pinned that van 5 minutes into the pursuit but allowed the van to put the entire public in danger for almost an hour.

Thank CA lawmakers and DA's where only criminals are protected, and victims go to jail.

[@griplow]

There is no way the police are this stupid. They must be told to back off and let her cause as much damage as possible.

[@rawfoodphilosophy7061]

Maybe try spike strips while she drives back and forth?

[@JB11335]

The accident at the end is on the LAPD. How tf they didn't end the chase after several pit maneuvers just shows what a Joke they are.

[@TheKuptis]

The cop that had traffic stopped should've tried to block her way instead of trying to get out of the way.

[@Partybus777]

The docile behavior of the LAPD is egregious! But I expect nothing less from my pathetic State. So much pressure to not violate criminals rights or make them uncomfortable when dealing with law enforcement. That final crash is on LAPD. There needs to be some introspection and evaluation after this. Mind blowing.

[@AncestralFuel]

If this had been in Arkansas, it would have lasted less than 5 minutes- it’s disgusting how incompetent the LA police force are at pitting cars. Every person injured as a result of this incompetence ought to sue the city.
