Cop laughs about speeding colleague killing student

New bodycam footage shows a Seattle cop joking and laughing at the death of a student who was killed by a fellow officer the previous evening. Daniel Auderer can be heard saying ‘she is dead’ in a phone call with a colleague, before bursting into near-uncontrollable laughing. ‘She’ referring to 23-year-old graduate student Jaahnavi Kandula, who was struck and killed by a speeding patrol car. ‘Just write a check. Eleven thousand dollars,’ he said, presumably when asked what the city was planning to do. ‘She was 26 [sic] anyway, she was of limited value,’ he concluded, still laughing. After fellow officer Kevin Dave had killed Kandula by going 74 mph without his sirens on through an intersection, Auderer had attended the scene to perform a drug test on Dave.

The bodycam footage followed the release of footage of the killing itself, which was done ‘in the interest of transparency’ as the Office Police Accountability investigates the incident. It will not comment on this new footage until that investigation has concluded. However, the civilian-led Community Police Commission has said that it highlights ‘elements of the Seattle Police Department culture,’ and ‘resistance to officer accountability.’
