The lawyer representing the family of murder victimAshli Babbitt is claiming that she was killed in an ambush. For the record.
The DOJ did not bring charges against the cop who killed her, not because they thought he was innocent, they claim there wasn’t enough proof to get a conviction. Even that excuse is lame but I point that out because not even they felt they could get away with calling it justifiable homicide.
Babbitt, 35, was fatally wounded as she attempted to climb through the broken window above a door while the Capitol Police officer hid behind some furniture, hidden from her view.
There were at least two officers closer to Babbitt than the shooter and if the shooter had shouted a warning, they would have picked up on it but from the video, they never moved an inch.
She was not carrying any kind of weapon and was no immediate threat of any kind.
One other odd fact is that even though they did not prosecute the officer, he has not worked a day since January 6th. He is on paid leave. Kill a Trump supporter, get an extended paid vacation. I wonder if you noticed one ironic fact about that day. An officer suffered two strokes and died. The media and other Democrats call it murder. Ashli Babbitt was killed by a .40 caliber bullet and the same people claim it wasn’t murder.
A fellow officer who spoke on condition of anonymity said his colleague was not following department firearms training. That training says you are to point your gun in a safe direction until you notice a clear and present danger, but the officer had his gun pointed in the direction of a Republican member of congress. Was he supposed to be the one shot? We will never know.

He’s even pointing it in the direction of a member of Congress,” the fellow officer said, referring to Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), a former professional mixed-martial-arts fighter who had joined the scrum in front of the chamber doors.
“I can’t tell you how many officers have contacted me to say that what that guy did doesn’t pass muster,” Roberts said in an extensive interview. “No one has come forward to say this was justified homicide, not even the Justice Department.”
“The way he did it — hiding in a room and then popping out and firing — is a problem,” Roberts added. “If his objective was to stop her, he didn’t need to shoot. He could have got out in front of her and used a number of other methods of less-lethal force. He could have tried to cuff her.”
She broke into the Capitol then climbed through a window that was close to Vice President Pence. If her getting killed stopped some serious harm to officers of the Capitol, the Vice President or members of Congress. Thank God!
That is the most ignorant thing I have ever read. She was an unarmed woman hanging in a window. Even his fellow officers are questioning this shooting. You probably wear a mask while driving alone in your car. Please telle you don’t have crotch goblins. We don’t need anymore of your ignorance in this world.
it is people who think like you that are ruining this Great Country. We the people have the right to protest our Government. She was unarmed she was part of a protest, she was fired at with 2 other officers standing right near her. What protocol calls for an officer to fire into a croud with officers present targeting an unarmed woman and shooting her dead? if she was climbing in a window i dont see how she was posing a threat to that officer. You are not looking at the big piocture and you are not listening to any other news except that which feeds your narrotive. that is the difference between someone who does biased research and someone who does real research and digs deep into both sides to compare which is more truthful.
Party issues aside, we the people have the power to remove the highest held elected person in the land if He or she violates their oath of office to uphold the constitution. but right now we have an administration being controlled by people who commit treason espioinage and blatent money laundering they are above the law and all the left can do is long for the days of Trump when they thought they had someone to blame and soemthing to fake bitch about, blatently talk about blackmailing foriegn officials with tax payer money, sons who smoke crack given high paying jobs within our Govt or is protected by our govt because if you or i lied on a gun application we would be thrown in jail but why isn’t Hunter Biden? and why don’t those of you that are so concerned with the supposed insurrection on jan 6th care about high crimes being committed by the current President? Doesn’t the Constitution mean anything to you?
So well stated Michelle! 🇺🇸💪🏼
Thank you, Michelle. Very well put. We are lost in a lost world, but I pray God will return and drive us out of this mess we’ve gotten ourselves in. That poor woman. No justice for her, or us.
She climbed through no window. She was at the window. And she was shot from ambush with no warning. Two other Capitol police were much closer to Babbitt than her murderer and they tookno action. AAndfinally,Pence was the president of the Senate, not of the House. But cheer up, in another 20 or 30 years you might get one fact right. (But I sincerely doubt it)
I’m a retired cop. It was a bad shoot, no doubt about it. The use of deadly force at that moment was not justified let alone dangerous to the other officers who were standing just outside the door next to Babbit. The officer needs to come forward and have his day in court just like any other officer involved shooting case.
I agree the cop shouldn’t have shot.
But to say that he needs to come forward and have his day in court like any other cop? Nah, we know that is rare. Exactly why he hasn’t been charged yet. This is the case with most cases when cops kill people unjustifiably.
He hasn’t been charged yet because he ws not a Trump supporter and this awful shooting doesn’t fit the lefts false narrative of what happened that day. If it was found out to be a Trump supporter that had killed her for sure it would be all over the news and hed be in jail probably tarred and feathered by now. Nancy Pelosi’s witchhunt for Trump is ridiculous she is a corrupt politician who has broken so manyof the House rules and no one seems to do anything, why is everyone so afraid of her? she is just another fossil in washington who has a hard on for Donald Trump obviously. she needs to go!!
He isn’t being prosecuted because he is a black man shooting a white woman!
The DC police have a law passed they are exempt from getting their banned published or sued. Father God, Jesus, Holy Spirit keep us, but let is be humble and bold in exposing the evil ones. Holy Spirit comfort her family and friends, let it be so, amen!
