Sister of man killed by HPD officer speaks out 1 day after police released body and dashcam video

The sister told ABC13 that she believes the Houston police officer should be fired and face criminal charges. The accused officer was previously cleared in the 2012 shooting death

That lady cop isn’t fit to be an officer. She had problems getting up when she fell down

Yes. She needs to face the judge . And face the justice

Now its against the law to carry a gun in Texas? wtf.

Murder... End qualified immunity. Make this police officer accountable.

[@tonymedina922]

There is a time and place for everything. This guy grew up in the hood and had to pack protection. This should not have went from loitering/trespassing to murder. She could’ve easily told him to move on. But yet she wanted to escalate and instigate the situation. Pisses me off that there is so many people committing crimes in and around the same area but yet these officers are more worried about a guy on a bike outside a gas station drinking a can of big red soda. Man FTP!!!!

He had warrants and wouldn't cooperate

[@tonymedina922]

@@loriebolton980 let’s hope someone from your family doesn’t die over traffic warrants. These officers are trained to manage situations not escalate them. Telling a man she will shoot him over and over, while the man is asking to be shot is not the way to go. Instead of tazing or holding him down til backup officers arrived, she decided it was his time to die. It was 2 female pussy officers on one man with his hands held down. They both need their badges pulled.

the female ‘officer’ who killed the man literally killed a victim who called 911 for being robbed and got away with it(as not guilty). She claimed that the victim was reaching for a gun. However investigations showed that the victim doesn’t carry any weapon. The witnesses said the man was being shot while two hands up high… this is her second kill.

[@buleirww7471]

The guy is chilling with a SOFT DRINK and approached by two uniform, and uniform killed the guy. Even Gestapo would put ppl in camp first. And given it is Texas, one piece is normal. In 2023, 38 officer is killed on duty acrossUSA, but they NEVER PUBLISH the statistic of how MANY is KILLED BY COPS. They not ever dare giving out number. My estimation is 600.

Yes, I've been given a traffic ticket that I didn't deserve. It was 11pm and the young officer was very keen to know if I'd had a drink. I had not and I'm sure he was disappointed. We met up in court when I disputed the ticket. That's how to handle business like an adult. Are there bad cops? Certainly. The key is to let it play out in court, not on the ground by resisting. Simple.
