A Los Angeles county sheriff’s deputy shot and killed a 27-year-old woman who had called 911 to report that she was under attack by a former boyfriend, police officials and lawyers for the victim’s family said on Thursday. Records show the deputy had killed another person in similar circumstances three years ago.
On 4 December, Niani Finlayson called police and “reported that her boyfriend would not leave her alone and then screaming and sounds of a struggle could be heard”, the LA sheriff’s department (LASD) said in a statement. When deputies arrived at the apartment in Lancaster, a city in the northern region of LA county, they could hear screaming, LASD said.
Finlayson was inside with her nine-year-old daughter and had been injured by her ex-boyfriend and wanted him removed, her family’s attorneys said. The exact circumstances that led to the fatal shooting are unclear and LASD has so far declined to release body-camera footage.
Can the networks even handle this? Every time I see a live stream its 144p @ 2.5 fps
It’s like, half the cost of one of their tanks, but it wouldn’t be that hard to run a dedicated intranet across places with the necessary bandwidth.
down the stream’s quality when off network. This is why the squad car uplinks- gives you a place to buffer if something happens. (And the body cam, too, when they have to get out.)
The important part is they don’t get to delete it, or turn it off. The real time monitoring would be intermittent, but eventually oversight happens. (Maybe even flag everytime it does drop)
