Tamisha Price infected a police officer with hiv as revenge for killing her son Leon price
Waterford, MI – A tragic incident unfolded in Waterford, Michigan, when Officer Brian Shields of the Waterford Police Department shot and killed 10-year-old Leon Price.
The young boy was playing outside his apartment complex with a toy gun that had an orange marker indicating it was not real.
A neighbor mistook the toy for a real weapon and called the police after seeing Leon chase a friend, a 10-year-old white girl, who was running and screaming.
Responding officers arrived with guns drawn, and despite the presence of the orange tip on the toy gun, they ordered Leon to drop the weapon.
When he did not comply, Officer Shields fired two shots, striking Leon in the chest and abdomen. Leon’s mother, Tamisha Price, rushed outside screaming but was detained by police.
During the subsequent trial, Officer Shields was acquitted of all charges, sparking outrage in the community.
As he left the courthouse, Tamisha Price, a nurse by profession, carried out a shocking act of revenge.
Using her medical knowledge and access, she had obtained a needle filled with blood from a patient with full-blown AIDS.
As Officer Shields walked by, she stabbed him in the leg with the needle. Tamisha was immediately wrestled to the ground by officers and arrested.
A month later, medical tests revealed that Officer Shields had tested positive for HIV.
When questioned after her arrest, Tamisha Price coldly remarked, “An eye for an eye. Every day I die slow because of the loss of my son… Now he can die slow.” She burst into laughter as she made this statement.
Jessica Martinez, a neighbor who witnessed the initial shooting, provided a harrowing account of the events.
“I heard the girl screaming and saw Leon with the toy gun.
I knew it was a toy because of the orange tip, but everything happened so fast.
The police arrived and were shouting at him to drop the gun. It was like he was frozen, not understanding what was happening. Then, the shots rang out.
It was horrible,” Martinez recounted, her voice trembling.
The Waterford community is in shock and mourning the loss of young Leon Price. Many residents are calling for changes in police procedures to prevent such tragedies from happening in the future.
“We need to ensure our officers can distinguish between real threats and children’s toys,” said community activist Richard Hayes. “This incident is a devastating reminder of the need for comprehensive training and better community relations.”
Officer Shields’ acquittal has stirred a heated debate about justice and accountability in law enforcement.
Tamisha Price’s subsequent actions and arrest have added another layer of complexity to this already heart-wrenching story.
Legal experts predict a high-profile trial for Tamisha Price, with potential implications for how emotional and retaliatory crimes are judged.
