Notice how every parent of someone shot or killed by the police for doing something blatently illegal always says the same thing like how good their kid normally was and whatever it was they were doing that caused them to get shot was not normal?
This parent takes the cake. Her daughter wasn't holding a rifle, but rather a puppy.
I'd quote it, but I can't afford the AP's rates.
Update: Bonus! Here's the real story the AP stole.
But that's not the story from Jennings' mother, Patricia Jennings. She said her daughter had gone to the market with her boyfriend, who went inside to buy food. Regina stayed outside, holding her boyfriend's pit-bull puppy in a blanket. "She had a blanket," Patricia Jennings said. "But it was a dog in there." She said her daughter was unarmed. Her daughter was shot three times, once in each upper arm and once in the back, she said. She said her daughter talked to her about the shooting when she visited her at the hospital. "I don't understand how she got shot in the back," Jennings said. "She didn't run at all. She was facing him." Jennings said the dog, which ran away when her daughter fell, wasn't found. [ed - Of course it wasn't!]
