For sure, but it has to be more specific. You can cut police and move that to all the other services in the world, but if 911 still gets cops showing up, what was the point?

Movements and hashtags are important for starting the conversation. The follow up has to be specific. Dispatch protocol is one of the first things that needs addressing. Unfortunately, where I reside fire/EMT actively resist changes that would send them to do welfare checks, mental health calls, and other situations that don't require an armed response.

Thanks. What you described is so similar. A lot of the motivation was for custody of a child. She thought the ends justified the means no matter what she did.

I guess I commented because it may not just be money that was the motivation for that psycho. People like that have such fragile egos and such little empathy that they feel justified doing whatever they want.

It was actually a producer working on making her memoir Lucky into a Netflix project that researched into the discrepancies between a first draft of the script vs the book that helped get broadwater exonerated. She was at the least, still ok with getting her memoir into a new product at Netflix and it was sheer luck someone else cared enough to fight for the wrongly accused and incarcerated.

Because of the nature of the discrepancies, some have said she made up lies in her memoir to capitalize on the event and smear broadwater further had the book gone on to become the film Netflix intended. I haven’t read it but I think it’s important to point out she was willing to have this film produced and broadwater as the perpetrator in recent years. Aka she was willing to have this traumatic event brought up again and potentially make money from it and re-introduce it to audiences who don’t know about it. That says enough about her character.
