Officer CLEARED After Fatally Shooting Pregnant Woman! Justice DENIED?
Can you believe an officer who fatally shot a pregnant Black mother and her unborn child has been cleared of any wrongdoing by a police review board? This astonishing decision follows the tragic August 24, 2023, incident in a Kroger parking lot in Ohio, where Officer Connor Grubb shot 21-year-old Ta’Kiya Young. Young, accused of shoplifting, was approached by officers who demanded she exit her car; bodycam footage even captures her asking, “Are you going to shoot me?” Moments later, as her car slowly rolled forward towards Grubb, he fired a single bullet through her windshield, killing her and her unborn daughter. Grubb claimed he felt the vehicle hit his legs and lift his body, prompting him to shoot in self-defense. However, Young's family attorney, Sean Walton, vehemently stated that the department's policies are a "clear and present danger," accusing Grubb of choosing escalation over de-escalation. Despite a Franklin County jury having already acquitted Grubb of murder and other charges, this internal review board’s finding has sparked further outrage and questions about accountability. The deaths of Ta’Kiya Young and her unborn daughter remain a profound tragedy, leaving many to wonder about the future of police interactions.
