#EndQualifiedImmunityNow: “What we have here is a classic case of a Klansmen disguised as someone who is supposed to protect and serve.”
The comments were many of the more than 9,100 on an Instagram post detailing the deadly shooting of a distressed Black woman who called 911 for assistance from an allegedly abusive ex-boyfriend. #NianiFinlayson #HowTheLawFailsWomen #PoliceKillingsAndBidenFundingIncrease
When violence was in the mix
Niani she knew just what to fix
She dialed 911
For help to come
But a deputy shot her, and that was her end
No justice for Niani, her loved ones contend

#AbolistPoliceAbolishPrisons: Records show the deputy had killed another person in similar circumstances three years ago.
Finlayson was inside with her nine-year-old daughter… LASD has so far declined to release body-camera footage.

Today, the LAPD fatally shot #NianiFinlayson, who had called 911 as a victim of domestic violence. The officer who shot her also shot someone else who was a victim of domestic violence. There are too many cops out there who think that if you're a victim of domestic violence, it's somehow your fault. They should never be allowed to serve in law enforcement. #PoliceBrutality #California https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/dec/21/los-angeles-domestic-violence-victim-fatally-shot-police
