4. You are incorrect. She wanted to turn left. Her wheels were going left at first.

Ice agents were driving fast and she was not able to complete her left hand turn. So she was sort of trapped in the middle of the road trying to make a left U-turn. Once the second ice vehicle stopped and did not go around her as she waved him through, giving him right of way and being respectful of them in actuality, he got out aggressively and told her to get out of the car he was arresting her. She attempted to then leave, by backing up a bit turning her front wheels to the right and the the fateful movement of a right hand turn where a criminal ice agent who was in no danger drew his gun to force her to stop when she did not he opened fire on her.

Please watch the video very closely.
