"two weeks to flatten the curve, the new normal"
A frail, 95-year-old woman was approaching officers at a “slow pace” using a walking frame when they deemed it necessary to deploy a Taser, leaving her fighting for her life in hospital.
“A Power based on Authority can of course use force, but while Authority can create force, force can never, by definition, create political Authority”.
Alexandre Kojève, The Notion of Authority.
New South Wales police confirmed on Friday that the homicide squad was investigating the incident and that the senior constable involved, who had 12 years experience, is under review and no longer working.
Grandmother Clare Nowland remains in a critical condition in Cooma district hospital, with her family remaining by her bedside for the past two days, after the use of the Taser early Wednesday morning, which caused her to fall, hit her head and sustain life-threatening injuries.

That police commissioner is ready to go into politics. What a meek, avoidant and irresponsible behavior. The exact opposite of leadership. She deserves to be kicked out on the spot, and sued to hell.

Yeah tasering a 95 year old woman.....
That lying bitch - the police commissioner - should be hung - she is a smart mouthed evasive cunt.
And the fucking meat head with the Taser? What the fuck goes around inside that fuckwits head?
"She was evading capture and resisting arrest and we feared for our lives" - Yeah 95 years old and on a walking frame.
I hope they shoot the prick.
