When Seconds Count, Police Are an Hour Away

An HOUR response time? Texas woman called police an hour before officers found her body | Fox News

Dixon was deaf and used a translator service to call 911 roughly an hour before she was found dead. Dixon warned police that her ex-boyfriend had thrown a rock through her window and was breaking into her house. Dixen went on to claim that the ex had brandished a knife and threaded to kill her before leaving.

Oh it's nothing. We don't have to rush.

The POS ex-boyfriend has been charge with murder. It would have been better if he had been charge with assault because the cops got off their doughnut asses and responded to a 911 call.

Calling 911 is a fine thing to do. But if you believe that the cops are going to come riding to your rescue, you might want to reconsider that plan, and at least come up with a Plan B.

This all happened in February.

The nature of the attack and the lagged speed of police response has been a major point of contention in this case.

While I expect there to be a lawsuit, it will go nowhere. The cops have no duty to protect you, not even if you call 911, and not even if you have a restraining order.

Like I said, "Plan B."
