Eleven years is a little much. She deserves some jail time, but two years is probably more justified. An Eleven year imprisonment sounds vindictive considering Duanté Wright was suspected of armed robbery and was resisting arrest. Resisting arrest needs to be a potential death sentence if you want to have a society with Law & Order. When you resist arrest the rules of engagement change. The same with no knock warrants for people who have shown no inclination to resist arrest. When storm troopers kick down your door, they change the rules. EVERYONE deserves the opportunity to turn themselves into Law Enforcement in a civilized manner. Police have moved beyond their civilized Law & Order role which pushes people in survival mode. The bottom line is that gang members who wantonly commit murder get a lighter sentence and the eleven years is out of proportion.

Sounds like she panicked and pulled wrong weapon. Unlike the Capital policeman that shot Ashley in cold blood.
