She taught it to aspiring security guards and prolice academy students at the North Texas Job Corpus branch in this North Texas town. That is why friends and neighbors remained baffled Wednesday as to how the 31- year-old mother of two could have been shot to death in her home Tuesday afternoon by a police officer’s gun. Police said it accidentally discharged during a burglary investigation. Friend and former colleague Rakelle Sanford said Howard- Kalimah would have known to be cautious when she came home Tuesday to check on a burglar alarm that had started going off that afternoon. Sanford said she blames the police for what happened. “They definitely messed upi,” said Sanford, 26, who was at the family’s home to drop off a card and flowers. “Cathey knew the security trade. She teaches it.” Police Chief Doug Kowalski said at a news conference Wednesday that the department is investigating the incident with the assistance of the Plano Police Department, Collin County Sheriff’s Office and the Collin C6unty Medical Exam iner’s Office. The case will he presented to a Collin County grand jury for review. “This is going to be a fair, thor ough, objective investigation,” Kowalski said. “T here is nothing to hide here.” He has refused to release the name of the officer. The shooting occurred after the officer walked around the outside of the house and saw the back door slightly open. As the officer attempted to go inside, the door apparently popiped open, hit the officer’s depart ment-issued .40-caliber Clock handgun and caused it to fire, police said. A single bullet went through the door, striking Howard- H an ATM al |!j@y be affect ^Officials an rations to ■ in Dallas.
