Omaha police officers shot and killed a psychopathic woman who kidnapped a three-year-old boy from Walmart after she slashed his face with a knife she stole from the store.

According to ABC 7:

The woman, identified by police as Noemi Guzman, 31, was shot after refusing to drop the knife and then cutting the boy, according to an Omaha Police Department press release.

Store surveillance footage showed Guzman shoplifting the knife from inside the store and then approaching the child and his guardian and brandishing the knife, according to police.

Police said Guzman forced the guardian to walk ahead of the cart while the little boy remained inside, directing the guardian through the store and into the parking lot, where officers arrived shortly thereafter.

The boy was sent to the hospital, and his injuries were not life-threatening.

"Ms. Guzman was making multiple threats with the knife," police said in the press release. "Officers gave multiple verbal commands for Ms. Guzman to drop the knife. She refused to drop the weapon and cut the boy. The two patrol officers fired their service weapons striking Ms. Guzman."

It is great that the police acted as quickly as they did and saved the young boy from this evil lunatic, but it is important to note that this crime was 100% preventable. A young child did not have to be traumatized because this woman should never have been able to roam among the public.

Two years ago, she was accused of setting her father’s home on fire before breaking into a nearby church. She was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Subsequently, she was assigned a treatment plan that, clearly, did not do much to treat her insanity.

The problem with not holding people accountable for terrible crimes because they are “insane” is that it gives them a pass for the terrible things they have done. While you might be able to argue that they lack the insight to understand the severity of their actions, which I often don’t believe, that still does not mean they should be let back out into the public to jeopardize public safety.

How many more times do we have to hear about a psycho hurting or killing someone just to find out they had committed similar crimes, but were released because the courts dubbed them “insane?” It is time the justice system starts taking crimes seriously again, despite the cognitive disorders suspects have, as this "compassionate" approach only creates more victims, while further jeopardizing the safety of innocent Americans.
