Lots of people are scratching their heads about why Betty Shelby was arrested. There were 2 videos of the shooting of Terence Crutcher, and neither of them were convincing of a manslaughter charge. If anything, the dashcam video seemed to show Crutcher sticking his left arm into his car to reach for something (which would be cause for a self-defense firing of the gun)
So how does the DA come up with a 2nd degree manslaughter charge out of this ? The answer may lie with a look at a series of past shootings of young black men. In the shootings of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and the death of Freddie Gray, there was involvement by the White House. In these case somebody was sent from the White House to intervene. In Sanford, FL and Baltimore, Obama's # 1 running attack dog, Al Sharpton was there mouthing off at city mayors and police.
In Ferguson, MO Eric Holder was there, threatening civil rights lawsuit (which the fed govt can afford but Ferguson can't). So what's up with arresting an officer who appears to have shot a suspect in self defense ?
Are we seeing another capitulation to the White House race hustlers ?
