Seattle police officer Daniel Auderer has been taken off patrol duty and reassigned to a non-operational position after a bodycam recording revealed him laughing and making remarks about the death of Jaahnavi Kandula, a 23-year-old student from India who was struck and killed by a police SUV on January 23. In a phone call with police union President Mike Solan, Auderer can be heard discussing the crash, stating the speed of the vehicle, and commenting on the value of Kandula’s life. The comments have prompted an investigation by Seattle’s Office of Police Accountability.

The Seattle Police Officers Guild has stated that the recorded conversation was taken out of context, claiming that the officers were mimicking how the city’s lawyers might attempt to minimize liability for the incident. Community leaders and advisory council members have expressed their concerns over the incident, emphasizing the impact such behavior can have on the relationship between the Seattle Police Department and the community. The incident has raised questions about the department’s culture and the ongoing efforts to improve race relations.

🤬🤬🤬🤬
limited value ?? regular person ?? wtf .. she probably well educated and civilized than this officer … laughing at someone's tragic death … bloody psychopath …
He looks the part.
She is Indian and Indians don’t make lot of fuss hence she is of of no value to these guys
Whole world is closeted racists towards Indians
MEH! Watch the video – the girl is running through the intersection – so it is clear she saw the police car coming and willfully attempted to run through the intersection. She is 100% responsible for her actions!
cop has seen too many things like this so he is numb 😑😑
He has limited value
Sociopath sick cop
it's called subtextual mirroring but of course the average mid-wit reactionary humonkey will jump to the most uncharitable interpretation of this man's cynical role play
That beautiful young lady was going to school which takes years to get a respectful career. It only takes weeks to become a police officer. You tell me who has limited value.
He was terminated
Remember before they had bodycam or any video? Pre-Rodney King. The cops did and said whatever they wanted no questions asked. Now they still say and do whatever they want, but sometimes questions are asked.
I support our men and women in blue, but why are there so many officers have no empathy, lack deescalation skills, quick to anger and lack common sense? Is it poor recruiting? Inadequate training? Incompetent supervision? Inept senior leadership? Or lack of accountability and oversight from political leaders?
He should go to prison
Their filthy people period. Heroes when the cameras are rolling, take credit for what they do then act modest, behind the scenes they know what they are.
WHY IS HE STILL EMPLOYED AS A COP?!
He is not the only one who feels this way just take another officer with a similar personality I often wonder what it is with people like this I run into I would have never thought that would go this far as to not car about another life but I have a particular person in mind that acts like him just judging off this video I hope I’m wrong really this is one Time I hope I’m wrong
Absolutely DISGUSTING!!! 💯 Wtf is wrong with people these days?!
That's the mindset and morals you get after reading bible and following Christianity.
BASED
Totally understand the "ordinary person"/"limited value" statement. Was it funny? No.
Was it unrealistic? No
Would it be harsh for the parents to hear? Yes
Does it fit in a context of organizational response to a problem? Yes, though sarcastically couches
Horrible joke. Accurate statement.
Police state. Sub human cop, selected for the job by incompetent people.
I wonder if anything of substance ever happened? Like lose of police certificate for life? Very callous viewpoint of the people that should be protecting. Oh that’s right they only protect property.
Disgusting..
My question is what did the jack$#!%# he was talking to say that was so funny. He should be held accountable for his part as well. Seattle cops man
Just look at this fool, are you surprised?
Smfh
Disgusting
Ftp
Finest
And Washington post says that India Is the most racists country
I hear that he is working for them still as officer.
It's an Indian there are many indians than us citizens
He should go to jail for doing that
😢
This kind of American s h i t s
Where are all the typical people you find under this police channel comments section? Y'all hibernating? 0:23 low value, reminds me of podcasts like fresh and fit. You're a low value woman 👩😂😂, y'all think he tunes in? And that why he said it🙊
"SHE HAS LIMITED VALUE" might be the most heartless thing I've ever heard.
Trust me Washington Police are CORRUPT..The whole System is Corrupt in Washington State
It’s time for other races to step up and show the police we won’t take it anymore. It’s sickening
HE HAVE NO VALUE
NGL he betrayed his country and his career.
Wtf happen to this fool? Is he still in the force?
What a disgrace to the rest of the police force who puts their lives on the line everyday for this city
Guess what… he's still working as a cop. Why? Because you'all allow it.
I respect police officers, and see their value in society. I’m not a vigilante. Don’t see myself dressed in a costume, patrolling the streets. Something happens and I call 911 like the next guy, and hunker down until I see flashing lights and hear sirens. I also pray that someone like this isn’t who shows up in a uniform. Who exactly is he going to protect and serve?
He’s embarrassed himself, and brought shame upon every good conscientious cop in his department. This is why sensitivity training is necessary. Here’s a guy who clearly demonstrates why it’s needed.
Power level moment.
Rip
Justice for Janvi 🙏🏼🙏🏼
That's horrible
Oh wow 😮😡
American hippies
