The girlfriends later videos, seem to be making her look at least a tiny little bit, more likely to be exaggerating or even lying.
In her first video, she seems to be saying that the police neglected to medically treat her boyfriend. Yet video evidence, has now surfaced, which shows the police trying to medically help the shooting victim.
In her latest/later video (the very long one), she seems to be showing, huge hatred to the police. The hatred is so bad, I would find it hard to believe it started up in the last day or two. It seems to be a very longstanding issue/hatred.
She seems to be gradually admitting that the policeman ordered their hands out (and probably to remain still), yet she admits that her boyfriend ignored these instructions and instead reached for his ID. Some people think that the gun was on his lap. There are now more photographs available, where the gun is much more clearly visible, but lying outside the vehicle, when the police were investigating it. (Some time after the event was over).
The resolution has improved, of some of the pictures showing striking similarities between the boyfriend's (himself and some of his stuff) and the robbery suspect, are available.
The website debunking my original link with those photographs, has itself now been debunked. So maybe the original website was right all along.
During the main part of the incident, she admits she shouted very loudly "GUN" (and other words). She also says the boyfriend, said "gun" (and other words).
Some people are very suspicious about this, because they are saying that concealed carry permit holders, would be carefully trained and/or should know anyway, that during a police stop, shouting "GUN", is a very bad idea, and can dangerously spook the police officer.
Also if he had such a permit, how the heck, could his gun "legitimately" end up on his lap. If the policeman observed the robbery suspect, suddenly reaching for a gun, resting on his lap. While his girl friend shouts "GUN ...", he mentions "gun", and while ignoring police instructions to put his/their hands out of the window and remain still.
I can understand how the policeman would react, with unfortunately a potentially sad outcome.
She also seems to be contradicting herself, as time goes on. For example she was saying the gun was never taken out by her boyfriend. Yet we can apparently see it in the video, and maybe (the police are not saying yet) the police can confirm this.
She was/is also saying that he remained perfectly still, then changes it to that he moved to get his ID, which she admits was against the policeman's instructions to put their hands out of the window and remain still (I'm not sure of the exact words used).
On the other hand (in fairness to the girlfriend), she did explain that her boyfriend was confused by the policeman's instructions to both "remain still" and produce his ID. So her boyfriend went for the ID. I don't know at this stage if /how it happened at that stage.
tl;dr
I'm not 100% convinced that the girlfriend is fully telling the whole story and truth, about everything.
But in fairness to the girlfriend, we are getting little or no information (except a brief message from his defense attorney), from the police. Maybe when we do, we may also disagree with their version of events, who knows ?
But in the back of my mind, it still could be a terribly sad mess up, by the police (with some slightly non-optimal reactions by the victims).
As I understand it, the police (and officials) are saying that they are trying to quickly resolve/investigate some stuff, so that we can be told, a lot more about what has happened.
