First off, she died, he lived. Next, huge mistake he made. He noticed she removed something from her purse and he failed to do a search of her vehicle even after he found drugs in her purse. That's mistake number one. Next, notice how at all times she is almost always between the door and the officer. She's clearly blocking him from access to the center console area between the seats. If he had noticed that he would have saved himself from being shot when he searched the vehicle and retrieved her weapon. Instead, his focus is on her purse even after he already has looked inside and found drugs. At that point, he should have changed focus to what she was protecting in the vehicle. Notice when he asks her to step to the rear of her vehicle she remains close to the door. When she breaks away from him and runs around the vehicle he chases her, not realizing that her aim wasn't so much to get away from him to avoid arrest but to regain access to her weapon. That was in her mind the entire time, remaining in control of the weapon and preventing the officer from taking it away from her. Traveling across country more times than I can remember and being in various states and encountering many officers in my life I've a few times been asked to exit my vehicle and step to the rear. Having only tools and clothes in my vehicle I have no issue with leaving my things unprotected and simply step to the rear where it's not only safer while on the side of the road but my compliance sets the officer's mind at ease. Once the officer found drugs in her purse he had probable cause to search her vehicle as he had seen her remove something from her purse before handing it to him. That was her first action when being stopped. Failure to step away from the driver's side completely as asked was another huge red flag the officer didn't pick up on. Believe me, he'll never make that mistake again.
