This article is garbage, and misses a number of key points as well as doesn’t fact check the police .
In fact, as we reported exclusively, Dave was driving 74 miles an hour in a 25 mile per hour zone and struck Kandula while she was attempting to cross the street in a marked and well-lighted crosswalk.
“I think she went up on the hood, hit the windshield, then when he hit the brakes, she flew off the car. But she is dead. No, it’s a regular person. Yeah, just write a check. Yeah, $11,000. She was 26 anyway, she had limited value.”—Seattle police officer Daniel Auderer, joking with police union president Mike Solan about the death of pedestrian Jaahnavi Kandula earlier that night.
This shit pisses me off. They better be calling for his fucking badge. Fucking pig
Should be calling for his fucking head.
He needs to be arrested, convicted, and permanently disqualified from serving in law enforcement.
I mean, that shits blatant vehicular manslaughter. He should get a decade+ in jail. We know he won’t though.
Good call! Friendly reminder that KOMO is a right wing propaganda machine.

This article is garbage, […] doesn’t fact check the police
Typical KOMO/Sinclair media fare, then
What does limit value mean?…public hangings of corrupt people would fix this so fast.
Limited value when he’s talking about her age screams sex trafficking to me. He should be investigated.
Who do you think is going to decide who is corrupt? Why wouldn’t that position be filled by a corrupt individual?
Y’all really have forgotten what actual democracy is, huh?

I do think a lot of people already behave because they are afraid of the consequences. And we use peers to decide their fate. A mini mob if you will.
I understand what you are getting at though. I’m just not sure tolerating behavior that this story is any better. Is putting him away forever any better than the death penalty?
What world do you live in where those things aren’t already the case? You think parents watch their kids starve for fun? Have you missed all of the stories of extralegal killings?
This is so privileged and naive.
public hangings of corrupt people would fix this so fast.
How?
We can’t even stop police from continuing to do their job after they murder people, how are we going to give them the death penalty? And how is the state publicly murdering people going to discourage officers of the state from murdering people?
I can understand the feeling of anger but public hanging? Come on. People who earnestly want public hanging back are troglodytic fascists.

Probably stop relying on the government and just viva la ing it
Please move to Russia/China. We don’t do that in the civilized world. We’re better than that.
Edit: yes please downvote me for being against cruel and unusual punishment. Show everyone what kind of person you really are. I hope you get wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death so you can see how regressive your barbaric views are first hand.
downvote me for being against cruel and unusual punishment.
I dunno about the other 2, but I downvoted you for the xenophobic aside.
Calling authoritarian governments authoritarian is not xenophobia.
Komo is owned by sinclair, the right wing mega corp that owns hundreds of local news stations in different markets. The same company of "this is very dangerous to our democracy fame" that forces local anchors to read top down editorial from corporate.
Its no wonder they are kind to cops. Im surprised the article didn’t have a thin blue line background.
Man fuck SPD. I honestly went into the article trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, dealing with death on the job a bit of black humor is a coping mechanism. As much as I hate SPD I was ready for this to be a bit of that and the effected family upset while the media ran with it.
“She was 26, anyway. She had limited value.”
Duuuuude, what the fuck does that even mean. I can’t even with this shit.
It means he’s glad the dead person wasn’t someone he’d have liked to fuck.
Because he’s a monster.
And because he was a police officer, his aforementioned green light age would probably be 16 or younger.
Why would you say something so gross yet unarguably true
Because I’ve known a good amount of police–enough to know that’s the cold truth of the matter. I also have such a strong conviction against them I can’t let it be unsaid.
In fact, here’s another fun one: in my city, there’s an annual cops vs. firefighters boxing match for charity in an arena. Now, the cop my family used to be friends with brought our attention to an entire section, and told us that was the mistress section for the police. There were hundreds of women in that single section. About a year later, he would leave his wife and daughters for his mistress, whom we had no knowledge of. We stopped being friends.
Man… I grew up on fictional tales about morally grey complex villains with redeeming qualities that left me entirely unprepared for the reality of these irredeemably evil bastards running our society.
I can understand that completely. I grew up with very similar stories.
Like, in theory I know some good cops are out there, but in practice I’ve known 5 pretty well in my relatively short time, and they’ve all been abusers and most have been cheaters. Disheartening for sure, but the best thing we can do is keep them honest and demand justice.
She’s “used”.
Probably too old for him. So as a woman, no value. #backtheblue #womanarentpeople
The immediate move to turn off the body camera after saying those terrible things is an admission it’s own way and speaks to the character of this person when they think no one can hold them accountable.
