OKC female officer severly beaten during domestic call
2023-05-04
OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — An Oklahoma City Police officer is still recovering in the hospital days after she was brutally attacked while responding to a 911 call. News 4 is learning this was not the suspect’s first violent run in with the law.

"When she stopped moving, that’s when I got scared," said Perrishea Smith.

Smith said on April 27th she was drinking with her friends and DeAngelo Wright at her apartment near NW 19th and Ann Arbor. She said the atmosphere turned aggressive after Wright started fighting with her friends. Smith said Wright then choked her and lifted her off the ground. According to court documents, "she was strangled for 10-15 seconds before he released her."

Oklahoma City Police checked on Smith a couple times before, but Wright had run off. During the third check, the police department said two officers were sent to the home, but Sgt. Morgan Reynolds got there first.

#2  White female Police Sergeant, black male assailant, gutless Command Staff for allowing the DA to drop any charges. That she didn't use pepper spray, taser or service weapon is a hint of the Kim Potter/Derek Chauvin effects. If your department is unwilling to be adamant with the DA about getting maximum penalties for this kind of devastating assault, you cannot expect aggressive policing in the future from rank-and file officers. You get SFPD!

#1  Hewas charged with two counts of assault and battery on a police officer. Both were later dismissed.

It's not just Soros DAs that do this. DAs seldom prosecute this specific crime unless its tied to other charges and then all too often dropped for a plea bargain. Its all a game. Coordinating officers to be at a hearing, Defense asking for and getting delays, till the DA with filled dockets just wants to move the case. Once again the judiciary plays into the game by granting those delays.
