Officer Kim Potter:
Nick shares an article from the Star Tribune about former officer Kim Potter.
“The Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) examined Potter’s duty belt and saw her handgun holstered on the right side and her Taser on the left, according to the complaint. Both had their handles facing to the rear. The Taser was yellow with a black grip and holstered in a “straight-draw” position, meaning Potter would use her left hand to pull it from its holster.”
