The cop saw her holding up a baby. He was shooting at the baby.
Presumably this was justifiable self defense because the baby was the reason the mother needed diapers and if she hadn't needed diapers the cop would not be fearing for his life at that moment
We are being very sarcastic, the disassociation helps me process a tragedy like this. There is absolutely no context that would make this justifiable, the fact that a judge still deemed it so shakes me to my core.
