My mom taught me as a young girl just because people are a police officer doesn't mean they are a good person.

Not every kid has the luxury to have someone walk home with them or pick them up from wherever. Focus on the officer who murdered this young girl. RIP

Let’s not victim blame… She shouldn’t of been walking home alone? That’s crazy to say. He shouldn’t of touched her… PERIOD… PROVIDE, PROTECT, SERVE… Isn’t this their motto??? This is crazy, a whole cop…. Smh

I'm sure it's not his first murder, he used his badge to do his dirty work 🙄 woow

When I was 19, a police officer came up to me and asked if I wanted to have drinks with him and his crew. There was like 10 police officers. I said "I'm underage - I can't drink." He said "Don't worry about it." I couldn't believe it. I was so scared but thank goodness I wasn't outside or alone. I was on a train platform. He persisted and I kept saying "Thanks but I'm not of legal age to drink." And he finally left me alone. So scary

My heart goes out to her family..may their justice be swift and this repeat offender be put behind bars for good

So all bad behavior is ignored until it cannot be ignored anymore. Right

Did someone really say she shouldn’t of been walking home? I don’t see that comment, but I see a lot of responses saying it was said.
SHE HAD EVERY RIGHT TO WALK ANYWHERE SHE PLEASES!
She is a victim, she did nothing wrong.
Sending love and prayers to her friends, family, and community. This is heartbreaking 💔

Disgusting ! He had been watching her for a while! No one is safe anywhere God Bless her and her loved ones ! 🙏🏾♥️

Smh I couldn't image if this had happened to one of my daughters I would be out of my mind with anger and pain. Evil dude was stalking her I'm sure he's done it before.

It won’t bring the girl back, but at least he was arrested. I hope he’s convicted and put away for life! Condolences to her family and friends. 😔💐

To be assaulted and then murdered by a police officer just. Wow

[DiabolikalFollikles]

No. The initial breaking-and-entering of his neighborhood’s house was not “resolved.” She didn’t press charges because she was probably intimidated by the blue. Had it been “resolved”, he would have been kicked off the force.

Praying he is NEVER free to roam any community again. He belongs in prison for his natural life. Praying for the young lady's family and loved ones. While he did to her and being a law enforcement officer thinking he can get away with murder because he is a police officer. He is a threat and in 2018 he nearly hurt another young lady and again in 2022 tried it again. If law enforcement would've looked into what the victims reported maybe Susana would still be alive and miles in jail or prison. Praying for her loved ones and praying for the girls he tried to get in their house's too. They might have survivors guilt too. I seen a interview and they were both sad and uncomfortable that law enforcement did nothing to go after the murderer!!! 🙏🏻💔

That case was not resolved....cop trying to break into a house at night w a young lady alone....he said, the family didn't want to press charges and the case was resolved...he said the cop refuted the claim...how is that resolved? He should of been prosecuted in 2018 and fired....sicko...real sick...

This is why it’s so dangerous to claim to ”back the blue” as a blanket statement. There are horrible people in this world and many of them are cops.

The devil comes in all shapes, uniforms and sizes. We must keep our children safe.

[Electro-nics]

After he was called to the police for home
invasion the police department still hired him lol what a shame.

[annschnipke]
