Yeah thats the worst part of this: that the cop might potentially face consequences not the part where they tried to murder a jeep full of people. Fucking cops wonder why a lot of people rightfully dont trust them.
The full quote is even worse
"It was a really unfortunate incident because this could obviously end her career. It's ended her career with Bee County Sheriff's office. But it could end her career in law enforcement depending on the direction that it goes. Thank God none was injured but there's just absolutely no excuse for what happened," he said.
But it could end her career in law enforcement?? Like maybe someone else will hire her. She's clearly not a great shot but with some more practice, maybe. She's got the personality for the job.
- I mean shouldn't she be in prison? Her career should be the least of her worries
  
  Her career is the least of her worries because of prevalent law enforcement attitudes like this sheriff displays.
The is pretty much the conduct I’ve been conditioned throughout my life to expect from police. Unfortunate but not surprising.
