Should she be treated differently because of the type of crime she committed? Or are police going to treat a car thief differently? Or how about a businessman who committed fraud? If it was a white guy in a suit going back to check on his children would they have been so quick to pump 7 shots into his BACK? I think if we are honest we know the answer to that question.
A white guy in a suit would more than likely listen to the police and cooperate. Do not make the police feel threatened. That is they key to all these altercations with the police and it does not matter the color of the suspect's skin.
