Police Cops Gun Down a Knife Wielding Woman - Lancaster, CA

[ilovedurian]

She was definitely not “sitting in the ground and got shot in her back”. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Lying ass reporters.

 

[ilovedurian]

Why did he shoot?? Wasn't he the one who asked for a taser just 2 seconds ago??

She'll be missed. By her OnlyFans subscribers.

[Himmitty-Him]

Dude, the backup cop told the woman cop to use her taser. She pulls it out, and immediately hands it to him, then I'm idiately pulls out her service pistol a second time.

She shot and killed the fucking VICTIM.


Um. What!?

Wtf was she doing to him?

Did you listen to the audio? He was sexually assaulting her, and he was trespassing! That was entirely 100% self-defense against that man! And she was absolutely no threat to the fucking murdering pigs. She's the one that called them! The pigs need to be thrown in prison and locked away for good. A fucking menace to society.

Everyone was in the wrong here, the guy who was better off dead, the girl who should have had non lethal options but I do respect the shit out of for standing up to him, and def the cop who shot her after being handed a FUCKING TASER YOU DENSE FUCKING TART

I'm guess the "YOU DENSE FUCKING TART" was in reference to the murdering retarded fucking pig that used a gun to gun down the fucking victim after being handed a god damned taser.

Also, why the hell are these rats not rotting in prison? When did our country just so blatantly give some the power of being above the law? I mean, that's always been the case in practice in reality. But this god damn blatant?

 

[Adolf_Hitler]

I'm sure her family describe her as "a sweet and caring, beautiful girl who wouldn't hurt a fly" 🔪

 

[littleblackangel]

god i fucking hate cops

 

[rudy$$$]

I feel bad for the neighbors who have to deal with her drama and boyfriends.

The woman threatening to stab her dv partner was already removed from his reach and was out of danger. All she had to do was drop knife and exit apartment and she would be alive. instead she threatened to stab the man and made advances and made contact with him while holding the knife in an aggressive manner towards the man. Looking at just the facts and what officers saw upon entering the apartment only seconds prior I would absolutely call this a good shoot even though the caller was shot. She put herself in that situation and had become the aggressor. It’s unfortunate but zero money is owed here. Make the man who was the reason The cops were called pay any money owed.

TL;DR Info about video: Black chick got beat up by boyfriend, called police and apparently retrieved a knife, made a threatening gesture toward her boyfriend in front of the cops and got some new holes and a Go Fund Me. Pictures of her alive and details below.

4 December 2023
A 27-year-old Black woman called 911 for help during an alleged domestic violence incident involving a man authorities described as her boyfriend. When deputies arrived, they found the mother of two armed with a knife, and they fatally shot her.
On 4 December, Niani Finlayson reported that her “boyfriend would not leave her alone and then screaming and sounds of a struggle could be heard”, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department (LASD) said in a statement.
In the body camera footage released on Friday, yelling could be heard coming from inside of the apartment in Lancaster as deputies approached and tried to kick the door down.
Finlayson opened the door and appeared in the doorway holding a large kitchen knife in one hand, the footage showed. She then threatened to stab the man with the knife, according to the LASD, and that's when a deputy followed her inside and opened fire, killing the woman.
Now, her family has filed a $30 million claim against the sheriff's department alleging wrongful death and civil rights violations.
Here's everything we know about the case so far:
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department released body camera footage on Friday showing the moments leading up to Niani Finlayson being fatally shot by a deputy.
Finlayson was inside the apartment in Lancaster with her nine-year-old daughter and had been injured allegedly by her former boyfriend when she made the frantic 911 call, according to Bradley Gage, the family's attorney.
The body cam footage shows three deputies arriving at the apartment on 4 December, and screams could be heard from inside.
“The female was armed with a large kitchen knife,” the LASD statement said. “The female made verbal threats indicating she was going to harm the male with the knife. When the female approached the male with the knife, a deputy involved shooting occurred.”
“I'm going to stab him,” she can be heard telling the deputies before moving out of sight.
The footage captured two deputies entering the apartment. One of the deputies, later identified by the department as Ty Shelton, asks the other deputy to give him a Taser.
Finlayson has moved to the living room and is seen standing next to a man with one hand on him and the other holding a knife.
Her nine-year-old daughter could also be seen on camera, yelling and pointing at the man her mother is standing next to.
Mr Shelton drops the Taser and then fires his handgun at Finlayson four times, causing her to fall to the ground.
“No, no,” the alleged ex-boyfriend is heard yelling. “Why did you shoot?”
Deputies administered first aid until paramedics arrived and transported Finlayson to the hospital where she was later pronounced deceased, according to a statement from LASD.
The man, who has not been named, became resistant to police after the shooting and was arrested for child abuse and assault on a peace officer, according to a statement from the sheriff's department.
He was later released from custody pending further investigation.
On 21 December, the attorney for Finlayson's family filed a claim against Los Angeles County and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department seeking $30m alleging wrongful death and civil rights violations.
The claim is a precursor to a lawsuit, The Los Angeles Times reports.
At a press conference, Mr Gage said, “Niani had been given a knife to try to protect herself from this man that was accused of attacking her," the Antelope Valley Press reports.
The family argued that Finlayson was a victim of domestic violence and was not threatening anyone when deputies shot her in the back.
“Niani was sitting on the ground when she was shot in the back,” Mr Gage told reporters at the press conference last week. “She was not engaging in any type of physically threatening behaviour at all. In fact, she was the victim.”
“After the shooting, the [man] told the Deputies there was no reason for them to shoot Niana. The response? Beat up the [man],” the claim alleges.
“While some may believe that the [man] ‘got what he deserved,' Deputies are not allowed to needlessly kill women and they are not allowed to engage in vigilante justice,” it said. “No one is above the law.”
He explained that the deputy should have been focused on de-escalating the situation and that the use of a Taser or pepper spray could have done so without killing Finlayson.
“They took a situation that was volatile, but not deadly, and they turned it into a deadly situation with these tactics,” Mr Gage told The Los Angeles Times on Saturday.
He added that Finlayson's death was “inhumane and unjustified” and is calling for Mr Shelton to be charged with murder.
In the claim, Mr Gage also mentioned that “this is allegedly not Deputy Shelton's first killing. Yet he remains a member of the Sheriff's Department with no known punishment.”
In 2020, Mr Shelton shot and killed 62-year-old Michael Thomas in Lancaster when he and another deputy tried to detain him during a domestic violence call, according to county records obtained by The Times.
Prosecutors declined to file charges against Mr Shelton in that case, it was reported, though they acknowledged “there may have been other reasonable options available” to him instead of killing Thomas.
LASD has responded to the claim, stating: “The deputy involved in the shooting has been removed from the field pending the outcome of the Department's critical incident review.”
“The Department will examine and evaluate every aspect of the shooting including the response, tactics, and background of the employee.”
The investigation will include a multi-level review process involving the Office of Inspector General, the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner, and the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office, Justice System Integrity Division, according to a statement from LASD.
Tracie Hall, Finlayson's mother, told ABC News that Finlayson did not die immediately.
“She called for help and cried out in pain,” Ms Hall said “Her 9-year-old witnessed the entire murder and her mother's suffering.”
Ms Hall said Finlayson's daughter told her that the ex-boyfriend choked Finlayson and would not get off her.
She said when Finlayson's daughter tried to help her mother, the man grabbed the child and forcefully threw her against a nearby dresser.
“We're trying to, as a family, make her [Finlayson's daughter] not feel guilty for helping her mother,” Ms Hall said. “She was in no wrong. She did nothing wrong. And I want her to know that. I can't express that enough to her.”
Finlayson's daughter at a press conference said she handed her mother a knife before the deputies arrived because the man was "hurting my mother and me". "I didn't have [any] choice but to get something sharp," the girl was quoted by Los Angeles Times as saying.
In a GoFundMe created for Finlayson's children, the organizer wrote that the young mother “called 911 for help and ended up shot dead in her home in front of her ... daughter by LASD."
“It's so unfair that we have to live our lives without Niani Finlayson,” Ms Hall added. “That was my best friend. I'm going to miss her so much. I miss her already.”

One less ghetto bitch

Niggers...always niggers.

Always a cunt. I hope you drop dead and fall in one and suffocate. Lifeless white trash. I'm white and you make me ashamed to be white

 

[Tera48]

One less ghetto bitch

One less f**** if I had my way. I hope you die and get exactly what you deserve. You make me sad to be white. Piece of s*** little faggot

 

[Tera48]

One less ghetto bitch

I wish I could find you and actually just put you out of your misery you lifeless f***. Always judging and being that type of guy. All of you make me sad to be white. I swear to God name the place and let me f****** just beat the s*** out of you. Nothing would make me happier and we can put that s*** on this site

 

[Tera48]

Yeah, you used the term "darkies," in a sentence that I actually don't fully understand what you were saying. Given the context of that word, I assumed it was being racist.

I don't know what the sentence

"These darkies don't half have daft names" means, or what you were trying to say. I'm guessing autocorrect changed one of those words in there.

All of you fuckers are so judgmental. I don't really like black people and I can say it. It's okay to have feelings but I don't disrespect black people. I just don't like them and I think that's okay. However when I see something like this where someone is brutally beaten up and murdered I don't agree with it no matter where I reside on the spectrum of white or black. I can only hope the same thing happens to you you mindless fucks. You only feel like you can say what you want to say on this site. I'm just waiting for one of you to actually challenge me to a fight and we can put the end results on this site. Once again I'm ashamed to be white. This race that I am just keeps letting me down. I know that I come from good people and a great family. But f*** what is happening. No one is brave enough to actually do what's right or say what's right. I'm just not one of those f**** and I don't give a s*** how any of you feel. I just hope you get the same when you say s*** like you say. All of your pathetic.

Yes I actually agree with you. Even though I don't like black people I do not feel that you should be disrespected or treated bad by the cops. I actually agree with you and I'm so sorry that this happened to this woman. As a woman I would not want to be treated this way and if I were in her shoes I'm sure that I would feel wronged. These racist fuckers just troll and say s*** because they're too much of cowards to actually stand up for what's right. I don't have to like you and I don't have to agree with you but damn I don't want to see you treated that way as I wouldn't want to be treated that way myself. I have been offering to fight one of these fuckers and put the s*** on the site. But somebody please stand up and just give me that. Let's just do it the old-fashioned way. I'm a badass bitch and I am trained professionally to fight. I just want one of these people to just get in the ring with me. I would like for them to say what they say on the site and then let me put a can of whoop ass on them. I'm just saying is anybody up for it?

Sounds like the easy way out asshole. You must be white and pathetic because you don't actually understand life and if given the same situation and you were in the same shoes I just hope you get the same results. All of you cunts are always saying good job to the cop with no brain. I think it takes intelligence to judge situation and I don't think every situation should result in someone being shot to death. If your white ass was in the same situation Lord help us we would have to defend you on so many matters. I just think it takes somebody with a brain to understand that they do not have to use lethal force on everyone that threatens them. Have a little empathy and try to evaluate the situation and not be such a cunt. I am not the type of person who likes Democrats or black people. But damn put yourself in the same situation and how would you feel. Just use your brain little one. Do you have one or does anyone have one. You don't have to like the other side but damn stop being such a judgmental cunt.. I'm just saying.....

By the way I'll be more than happy to put my face out there so everybody can see who I am. I'm not afraid to do that I'm not afraid to stand up for what I believe. All of you can kiss my ass if you don't like me and stand corrected because I don't like anybody. I'm racist and I don't like white people, black people, Asian people, anybody for that matter. I like dogs. That's the only thing I like and f*** you if you can't take a joke. I won't apologize and I definitely want everybody to know who I am because I'm not afraid of any f****** here. You can kiss my white ass and completely suck my crack. Just saying....
