The Los Angeles Police Department has launched an internal affairs investigation into the Nipsey Hussle murder case following news that the woman who drove the getaway car, was sent home when she tried to turn herself in.
The LAPD’s Office of the Inspector General told The Association Press Monday that the department’s Internal Affairs Group is investigating a desk officer’s response at the 77th Street Community Police Station. Capt. Gisselle Espinoza, a department spokesperson, said the matter is under administrative investigation, however, she was unable to provide additional details.
Grand jury testimony showed the woman was turned away when she went to the LAPD station after seeing her car and license plate on the news.
“Oh my God,” the woman testified that she told her mother. “My car is on here and everything, and I didn’t do anything. I didn’t know this boy was gonna do this.”
Grand jury transcripts state her mother called police, but was told detectives wouldn’t be available until 6 a.m. the next day. When they arrived at the police station the next morning, the front desk officer said “don’t worry about it” and “don’t listen to the news,” the transcript showed.
The woman’s name is being withheld for her safety following a series of threats.
