Officer Baker survived his injuries after undergoing surgery. Holbert, regrettably, passed away in the hospital.
Holbert’s family doesn’t think she did anything illegal, even though video shows the incident.
Indeed, according to News Channel 5, the woman’s mother, who does not want to be identified, maintains that Officer Baker killed her daughter and ought to have simply “walked away” rather than attempting to apprehend her.
The mother insists that Nika Holbert was defending herself and that the cop fired first, even after seeing the body cam evidence. For her daughter, she now seeks “justice.”
Despite her mother’s insistence that she was a “good girl,” Holbert has had some prior legal issues.
