Groundwork for a Lawsuit

This better be fought tooth-and-nail every step of the way:

• When Charlotta Pritchett picked up the phone and dialed 911 early Friday, she says she thought she was doing the right thing to help her boyfriend as he went through what she described as a mental breakdown.

  But instead of getting the help she expected, Pritchett would be mourning his death by the end of the night.

  Officers shot Timothy Glaze, 57, multiple times when responding to Pritchett’s call, and he was pronounced dead less than an hour later.

And why did the police respond to the scene and shoot this poor altar boy?

• Police were called to the Albany Terrace Apartments, 3030 W. 21st Place, about 2 a.m., and according to a police dispatch recording, Pritchett, 56, reported she was being attacked by Glaze, who had a knife and a screwdriver.

Ah yes....the typical ghetto "He's got a (choose one) gun, knife, screwdriver and he's (chose one) waving it, chasing me, attacking me! Hurry!" This type of thinking has been ingrained in the moron class - if you want a faster police response, claim a gun/knife/active combat!

And in this case, it went south in a hurry. The offender charged officers with a knife and got justifiably shot for his efforts. Now the second guessing begins and the lawyers are lining up. The "girlfriend" is already backtracking her phone call, claiming she wasn't being attacked and didn't even break a fingernail. She's going to have a time of it because

• the call is recorded with her claims of a knife;
• the call taker hears her telling the offender to put down the knife;
• there was an Order of Protection in effect and she still let him stick around for days and weeks.
  

In any event, there appears to be nothing at all wrong with this shooting, which means Conehead is going to offer the "estate" of this multiple-arrested and convicted a$$hole a pile of money.
