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

[DrGoodEvil]

Shot them 4 times and was still yelling at them to drop the knife.

"HEY, LIFELESS PERSON ON THE GROUND THAT I JUST SHOT 4 TIMES DROP THE KNIFE!!! DROP IT!!! STOP RESISTING MOTHERFUCKER!!! GET ON YOUR BACK, GET ON YOUR BACK!!! I SAID ROLL OVER ON YOUR STOMACH!!! FUUUUUUUCK!!!!"

That cocksucker WANTED TO SHOOT SOMEONE, GUARANTEED.

 

[gon3002]

Anyway, they solved the problem, it is guaranteed that they will never have a family argument again.
If it hadn't ended up like that the officers would probably have had to keep going to visit them every time they argued again, although I would have preferred the man to be shot.

It's no wonder the government segregated these African Wild Dogs into projects and ghettos. Unfortunately, their starting to come into white neighborhoods because the fucking Purto Ricans are taking over the projects.

No loss there

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.”

Ok so I umm I'm a little confused.. where's the part that anyone is supposed to care a nigger died?

Omfg, here we go, 1st sentence of long ass article states "black woman"???? Hmmm WHY really, did that fukn matter one iota, NO! Wouldn't of mattered black, white, red, purple, green nothing, anyone dam color woulda 💯got their ass shot in that moment PERIOD! WTF, people tryn cause problems where absolutely non needed. Male, Female, Black, White they would have been looked at as a threat and shot as well🤦‍♀️💯

Why did they shoot her? Couldn't they have just used kind words and positive affirmations to stop her? Maybe mentally send her some "good vibes"? She obviously only wanted to stab him just a little; she didn't want to kill him outright - that would have meant the end of his child support payments.

Really? No, deadly force was absolutely without a doubt justified. Watching again....they walk in with guns/tazer out, she foescbaxk over to vf he's on ground she above him going to grab him and to almostveveryibe obviously, looks as though she's gona bring knife down on him🤷‍♀️👍open and shut, justified 💯

I think the cop had no clue if she was about to attack the male with the knife she was moving towards

Uncalled for shots... Tf was that officer thinking... Well I mean clearly wasn't but yeah

^^ Hey up shipmate i thought me and you where mates on here? You gave me a N****R emoji. I wasn't even being racist. I've just given you a love one.

I got one too, but it's because I might post some stuff from my studies for the "mystery school" degree, like a Plato, Ovid, or Nostradamus received. Like myself, most are repulsed by what the talmudic studies reveal. So, that's why....for me.
And, of course, you're right, on the names.

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.”

Weak ass cop! He could've waited to see what she would do next. She would've done stabbed him already before the cops showed up. She didn't...to me it was all show coming from her. Expressing how she feels about her man. Common sense .

Weak ass cop! He could've waited to see what she would do next. She would've done stabbed him already before the cops showed up. She didn't...to me it was all show coming from her. Expressing how she feels about her man. Common sense .

Yeah but she was black you wouldent let a monkey in the house holding a knife would you ? I would say ringing the police then holding a knife claiming im going to stab this man when they arrive is fucking stupid .... common sense really.

 

[Gingerly]

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?

So me and every other white woman just took a vote, and we don't claim your nigger loving ass. Sit n spin bitch. 🖕🏻
