She was a deluded MAGA-head so anything is possible, but I hope there is an investigation.
They were storming a secured federal facility that contained the highest ranking officials in the entire government. They had ill intentions and were not allowed to be there after breaking through barriers, breaking down doors and smashing windows to get inside. All in an attempt to subvert a lawful election and a peaceful transfer of power.

Im not sure there has ever been a more justifiable shooting caught on camera than this one.
