Kim Potter: Cop Who Shot Daunte Wright Resigns, Flees Home

The title is slightly misleading esp. if one reads the following:

Kim Potter's Home Address Revealed

After her address was posted on social media, Kim Potter reportedly fled her home. The officer, who resigned from her position in the police force, immediately vacated her home for her and her family's security, Independent reported.

The Kim Potter is quite similar in many respects to the 2018 ( non fatal ) shooting of Akira Lewis in Lawrence , KS. Although in this case, the police officer was a rookie, she also mistook her gun for a Glock. https://apnews.com/article/ab2b3627e813462da92e78fc73b863b8

In this case, Brinkley Blood was acquitted.

The suspect was pulled over by a male officer for a simple seatbelt citation and instead of signing it, he grew increasingly argumentative, culminating in him attacking the male officer , throwing him to the street in traffic , punching him in the face... the female rookie who had arrived moments earlier , rushed to the officers aid, yells ‘ Taser Taser Taser! ‘ just like in the Kim Potter case and shoots a round into Lewis’ butt , I think.
