Jesus, that breaks my heart. What an awful story. As usual, Lauren, you're one of the few places on the web to bring attention to these kinds of stories. Kudos.

Don't be too sure, she is a Black woman and Al Sharpton tends to only acknowledge crimes against Black men humanity.

Good point, Black Ivy. I knew there was something about this story that would render it uninteresting to Al Sharpton, and you hit it.

I feel empathy for the family of this lady as she reminds me of my grandma.

I remember reading that she shot first and hit three of the officers including one in the face. I also read that she was afraid of the young boys in the neighborhood. To bad she didn't get some of those street cornor pharmarcists instead of the cops.

Not trying to be funny, but how is it that a woman this old shoots better than the 20 year idiots waging war/ethnic cleansing/genocide in the inner city streets of America.

Thanks lauren for this update as I wondered what happend with this story, and BIG you ain't never lied.
