    Justine Ruszczyk (40) was shot dead by police after she called 911 to report a disturbance

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...in-minneapolis

    US police officers have shot dead an Australian woman who reportedly called 911 after hearing a noise near her home in Minneapolis.

    Minnesota?s public safety department said a woman was shot in Minneapolis after two officers responded to a callout about a possible assault on Saturday at 11.30pm local time. The police officers did not have their body cameras turned on.

    The woman has been named as Justine Damond, who ran meditation workshops at the Lake Harriet Spiritual Community.

    I made an article for her. I used her maiden name as I read they weren't married yet and she just used her partner's name for professional purposes.

    The stepson seems kind of weird.

    Her stepson said Damond, 40-year-old Sydneysider, was ?passionate? and his ?best friend?.

    ?Basically my mum was shot for reasons I don?t know,? he said in a video posted on Facebook on Monday morning.

    An Australian woman was dressed in her pyjamas when American police gunned her down, harrowing new details surrounding her death have revealed.
    Justine Damond, who also uses the name Justine Ruszczyk, was at home on Saturday night when she called 911 to report a noise and a possible assault in an alley in South Minneapolis, Minnesota.
    While police did not have body cameras switched on during the shooting, sources with knowledge of the incident claim the officers arrived at the alley at 11.30pm on Saturday night.
    Ms Damond reportedly walked up to the car and began talking to the driver when an officer in the passenger seat pulled a gun and shot her through the drivers side door. No weapon was discovered at the scene, the Star Tribune reports.
    The 40-year-old was originally from Sydney but had been living in the US for three years and was due to marry American businessman Don Damond, 50, in August.

    Yeah, the stepson's comments struck me as odd and out in far left field too.

    This whole thing is bizarre.

    It's convenient that both the body cam & dashboard cameras were turned off, isn't it. And why in the hell would be he shoot from the passenger side?! Makes me think he was skiddish or something. I'm hoping he gets charged w her death. Poor women calls for help and ends up getting shot dead. :(

    I get cops being scared but not skiddish. That's just scary to think about. Lol I hope they don't think like that, they're in my area a lot. Drugs are bad around here but thankfully crime (other than drugs) is low.

    I'm reading it as the body cameras were turned off.

    Are they supposed to be on at all times or do they turn them on when they get out of the car? Since they were still in the car I guess it could be a reason why they weren't on.

    As for the dashcam, it didn't say if it was off or on - just that it didn't capture the event. Since they are typically pointed forward it wouldn't have caught the shooting if she was at the drivers side window.
    I can be your *ADDICTION* if you wanna get hooked on something!!

    If they are scared enough to fire at an unarmed person, maybe it isn't the job for them.

    His name is Mohamed Noor.

    I bet they go hard on him.

    The Somali-born Minnesota police officer alleged to have shot and killed an unarmed Australian woman on Saturday had been lauded by Minneapolis? mayor and feted by the local community when he joined the force in 2015.

    ?I want to take a moment to recognize Officer Mohamed Noor, the newest Somali officer in the Minneapolis Police Department,? Mayor Betsy Hodges wrote in a Facebook post when Noor began serving the city. ?Officer Noor has been assigned to the 5th Precinct, where his arrival has been highly celebrated, particularly by the Somali community in and around Karmel Mall.?

    In fact, The Washington Post reported that community threw a party for Noor ? the first Somali-American officer to serve in the precinct. Minneapolis is home to one of the nation's largest Somali communities.

    I thought they supposed to be turned on all the time. I could be wrong but thought that was the whole purpose was too capture everything.

    I am not sure about when they are suppose to turn them on or off. But I know some police officers got in trouble by looking at a females body came when she would use the rest room...

    I doubt it. With the population having so many somali's, and him having the "blue wall" as protection, he will probably be just fine. Maybe fired.

    All he has to prove was that he was afraid for his life. Or at least that's what it appears from other police shooting cases.

    Shortly before she was shot and killed by a Minneapolis police officer, Justine Damond called 911 to report that she thought she heard “sex noises” and a woman calling out “help,” according to transcripts of the calls made public by Minneapolis police Wednesday.

    “I’m not sure if she’s having sex or being raped,” Damond said during the first call at 11:27 p.m. Saturday. “I think she just yelled out ‘help,’ but it’s difficult the sound has been going on for a while, but I think, I don’t think she’s enjoying it.”

    Here are the transcripts:

    Operator: Okay, well I already got a call started and help on the way. Uh, you can’t see anything, you’re just hearing a female screaming then, is that what you’re saying?
    Caller: Yeah. It sounds like sex noises, but it’s been going on for a while and I think she tried to say help and it sounds distressed.

    This makes me madder. And I'm mad if this does bring about any change, it shouldn't take a foreigner being shot, this is so normal for you guys, it should have changed so fucking long ago it hurts.

    I think it is awful she was Aussie, like she is used to our cops who don't go around shooting people as a first response to every single incident ever, and ours are also better trained that they probably could've gotten her to a hospital alive with a gut shot. Poor woman thought she was doing the right thing, and BAM, she is dead for no reason but the cop was a coward.

    I keep reading that his friend/family keeps saying the truth will come out, but how? the cop isn't talking, there is no video, he should be charged automatically just because they were responding to a call and didn't have the cameras rolling. It should be automatic at least manslaughter charges when the cameras aren't rolling, upgraded as possible.

    So it never crossed his mind that they might actually be approached by the victim at the scene?

    "Whoa, hey, sorry you got raped but you can't just walk up to us like that."
