The California Justice Department announced today that it has found no cause to file chargesagainst a Los Angeles police officer who, while aiming at a suspect, shot and killed a 14-year-old girl hiding in a department store fitting room.
Fourteen-year-old Valentina Orellana Peralta was picking out a quinceanera dress with her mother just before Christmas in 2021. She was shot and killed by a bullet that ricocheted off the floor.
Just astounding what people will accept as truth from cops. If I said “I saw someone swinging a bicycle lock around and I thought they had a gun instead so I shot them,” no one would buy that excuse. But if a cop says it?
Maybe their bootshine taste delicious? Can’t see any other reasons
