The guy who tried to rob the house where the victim was shot by the police........

Let one of the hostages go in order to go to an a.t.m. machine and withdraw money for him...
Guy must of been out of his freaking mind to think she would not call police...

There are so many things that seem wrong with this story, but I have a feeling that over reaction by police might be an issue..

I wonder if they'll really "get to the bottom of this." Or just cover it up.

in her head and 8 hitting the robber.

No one will convince me that that's justifiable.
