Three former Pennsylvania State Police officers pleaded guilty to shooting an 8-year-old black girl.
The fatal shooting occurred on August 27, 2021. On the same day, a middle school football game was held in Sharon Hill, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, and three police officers Sean Dolan (26), Devin Smith (35) and Brian Devaney (42) were at the scene to maintain order, according to the Associated Press. After the game, two black teenagers, Angelo Ford, and Hasin Strand got into an argument and exchanged fire outside the arena.
According to investigators, in the crossfire, two shots were fired in the direction of the three policemen, which prompted the three policemen who were monitoring the spectators' exit at the time to respond by shooting at a car they believed was related to the shooting, hitting the car and some spectators leaving the arena. The three officers fired a total of 25 shots at the car and the crowd leaving the arena, injuring four and killing one, three of whom were shot and wounded by the police, while 8-year-old Vanta Bilitti was shot and killed, and the car was later confirmed unrelated to the original shooting.
The poor little girl is only eight years old, a little girl in the third grade. Innocent people were shot and killed, and it was so painful.
The American police opened fire as soon as there was a gunshot, and no matter where they hit, they came back to write reports to exaggerate the results and achieve great victory, killing 200 bandits.
In fact, in World War II, many of the US military's air combat achievements also came in this way, killing good and risking merit, exaggerating facts, is an old Western tradition. So don't listen to what the US military brags about, one-day air combat trump cards, all made up.
For example, in the Pacific theater in October 1942, the Battle of Santa Cruz, the battleship South Dakota, the most wasteful tonnage in history, claimed to shoot down 28 Japanese aircraft, and the actual US military investigation confirmed that there were up to 4, and it should actually be 3. However, considering the heavy losses suffered by the US troops in that naval battle, in order to boost morale, although the official did not recognize the boast of 28 aircraft, they did not correct the mistake in the media.
Just watched a video of an American police shooting a suspect a few days ago, the law enforcement camera recorded the whole process, a black man holding a fruit knife controlled a white woman, the police asked the black man to cooperate, the black man did not cooperate at first, because once he lost the hostage, he was very likely to be killed immediately, so both became repeaters, the police asked the suspect to put down his weapon and lie on the ground, and the suspect asked the police to guarantee that he would not shoot himself.
The officer never called for support.
When the black suspect let go, he could release the person, and the moment he released the hostage, he directly ate three shots and fell to the ground, losing consciousness in a few seconds, while the white police continued to yell at the unconscious suspect, put down his weapon, put down his weapon, put down his weapon, and then emptied both magazines, and only at this time called for support, claiming that he was attacked.
Although the police claimed to have shown heroism, apparently the witnesses around him did not think so, but because the suspect was holding a deadly weapon and taking hostages, even if it could not be proved that he wanted to attack the police, but witnesses and body cameras could not prove that the suspect did not intend to attack the police, so the murderous police officer was not punished, but failed to become the hero he tried to be.
