Mohamed Noor released from prison today, Monday June 27.

NY Daily News (Archived): Minneapolis cop who fatally shot woman who called 911 to be released from prison.

The ex-Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot a woman while responding to her 911 call will be released from prison Monday.

Mohamed Noor, 36, gunned down Justine Ruszczyk Damond on July 15, 2017, after Damond called 911 to report a possible sexual assault in the alley behind her southwest Minneapolis home.

Initially convicted of third-degree murder and sentenced to 12 years in prison, Noor’s sentence was dropped to four years and nine months for manslaughter after the Minnesota Supreme Court tossed the murder charge in September 2021.

Noor will be released early and spend the next 1½ years on parole.

Noor was riding in the passenger seat as his partner pulled their squad car into the alley. Damond ran up to the car when she saw the officers arriving. Noor responded by reaching across his partner and firing a single, fatal gunshot.

In 2018, a jury convicted Noor of third-degree murder. In 2019, he was moved to a North Dakota prison “for his own safety,” according to Minnesota’s corrections department. Officers did not say where Noor was located ahead of his impending release.

"Officers did not say where Noor was located ahead of his impending release." Oh, well - gee - we should probably find out where he will be living and working and publish that information online, right? I mean, if it's acceptable to do to Supreme Court Justices, then...why not in this case?

He shot an unarmed, rather petite woman in pajamas - firing, as the story  says - from inside the squad car reaching across/over the position of his partner.

What up Libs? No ACAB on this one? No demonstrations against this early release? No protestors blocking freeways? No burning to the ground your local Target, Auto Zone or Walgreens? What say you, Libs? You'd be acting differently if Derek Chauvin's sentence was reduced and he was released early? Why? "Reeeeeeeeeeasons..."
