I would expect her to say nothing less than it was not her son's fault. However even if the officer is absolved of all wrong doing I fully expect a civil suit for damages to be filed (and probably already has been filed)

All these mommas getting so upset that their babies are dying but they're not upset at how their babies are destroying the city, as well as other people's lives? I can't wrap my head around it! Teach them right momma and maybe you'd still have him with you. He obviously had to learn the hard way!
