Seattle cops fatally shoot alleged pedophile during standoff: video
By: nypost (New York Post)
Wild bodycam footage has been released showing the moment police in Seattle gunned down an alleged sex predator who pulled a gun on them during a sting operation during which the suspect reportedly thought he was meeting up with two underage girls.
The suspect, 67, arrived at a DoubleTree Suites hotel in Tukwila at around 3:15 p.m. on Wednesday under the impression that he was meeting two young girls, ages 7 and 11, the Seattle Police Department (SPD) says.
He knocked on a hotel room door, where he was met by multiple SPD officers with the Washington State Internet Crimes Against Children Taskforce who were undercover and waiting to arrest him.
It is unclear what the suspect had been accused of doing or what led police to set up the undercover operation.
Eric Wehrmeister, a man who was staying at the hotel, said he saw the quick-moving situation unfold.
"I was running, I could see someone firing a gun," Wehrmeister told KOMO. "There was a rapid succession of gunfire. Good thing they were shooting away from my room. You know it could've been a lot worse."

Nicole Parker, a former FBI special agent, tells Fox News Digital that the officers had to react to the fast-moving situation in a split-second.
"Praise to these cops at the Seattle Police Department for their quick reflexes and neutralizing the threat immediately so no one else was harmed," Parker says. "Sadly, in light of countless recent line-of-duty law enforcement officer deaths, we know it doesn't always work out this way."

Another taken out.
As I was saying last week: The world is a better place.
But, as we saw on the last article I posted about a pedophile, there are some that will come out to defend them.
They were born that way!
They use that excuse for a lot of things.
The Biden campaign announced it was canceling its planned trip to Seattle do to safety concerns for pedophiles.
Is Donald Trump still allowed to walk into beauty pageant dressing rooms full of underage girls?

Is Brandon still allowed to sniff women's and little girl's hair? Is he allowed to caress and fondling women's and little girl's shoulders? Get inappropriately close and whisper things in their ears? Is he allowed to still hug for way too long (Hillary really wants to know! Because she is going to get a restraining order against him. Or next time he might never let go.)? Is he still allowed to take "inappropriate" showers with his daughter?
