Why is the Capitol Police officer who murdered an UNarmed woman, Ashli Babbit, not facing charges ?

Update:

Scott- why are you lying??? No police were killed in the Capitol Demonstration 

Update 2:

She was completely unarmed ... why didn’t he taser her or shoot to wound??? Why did he murder her 

Update 3:

Kenny - so now trespassers should be murdered??? That’s insane

    Her (or she) was investigated by Capitol police (and the FBI) and the local District Attorney elected NOT to file charges.  Considering that Babbitt was battering down an interior door in an attempt to "stop the steal", the shooting was considered justified.

    Because nobody who cares heard you crying about.

    Because she was in the middle of committing a felony, and was breaking through a barricade trying to get at the cops. She also was armed. She didn't have a gun, but she was carrying a pole she used to break down the door. And since one cop had already been literally beaten to death, I would have fired on here in self-defense too.
