Hindsight is 20/20. Perhaps the cops coming could've saved her life or if this dude was an emotional shyt stain, she still would be here.
Tragic overall. Truly tragic.
The best thing to do if you haven't already called the police is just tell them "I called the police! They're in the way!"
Whatever suspect in a burglary, car jacking, fight ain't gonna be like "let me see your phone! When did you call???"
We know police don't teleport to crime so it's gonna take a few minutes for them to drive.
“Somebody call the cops”
But you recording on a phone
People should make a decision. My phone can make a call while recording video. That's stock. Before it was stock I had an app that accessed my camera so I could screen record or record with my camera while utilizing all the other functions of my phone.
There's still far too many cold cases in America for people not to record. Hell they are still identifying and charging people who's faces were completely covered during the J6 riots based off camera footage and photos.
Once the victim is in the hospital or morgue it only takes one person to look at a picture or video of the scene and say "thats xxxxx" and identify who the suspect is.
We live in a society where a lot of people don't know who their neighbors are or their names or who they are dating. Telling the police "I think she knew who he was, they were arguing!" "I think it's her ex...I don't know his name" ain't much help.
There's too many identifying factors and it's easier to get the word out of someone is being sought when you have a photo or video. The news often shows "if you know who this person is call 911" otherwise if police can properly identify someone they can use a driver license or mugshot, even find someone's picture on social media.
No way he should've had access to a gun
If it wasn't a gun it could've been a knife, bat, hammer. Hell he could've beat her to death with his fists and feet. He was hell bent on doing something stupid that day. The weapon of choice isn't really a factor.
