In a conversation with Mike Solan, the head of the Seattle Police Officers’ Guild, Seattle Police Department officer and SPOG vice president Daniel Auderer minimized the killing of 23-year-old student Jaahnavi Kandula by police officer Kevin Dave and joked that she had “limited value” as a “regular person” who was only 26 years old.
…
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.
Typical cop evil. I expect that “just a regular person” translates to “not somebody important enough to actually pose a legal threat.” That is, not a cop, reporter, politician, celebrity, etc.
I don’t think you’re wrong, but I looked at her name and my first thought was that it was because she wasn’t white.
Oh no, these people would never call a non white “regular”
I dont think so, else he would have used a slur. So most probably he meant, person of no consequence.
