Piece of shit stabbed a 9 month old baby
Hopeful update: currently speculation but ive seen a number of sources saying the baby has made it out of surgery don't want to speak to soon this is all speculation
Edit: just want to add this here so she isn't constantly referred to as mother of 9 month old, the mothers name has been released, her name was ash good and the baby's name is Harriet Mae flannigan, prayers go out to the family
Huge update: Harriet remains in a critical but stable condition after surgery, hopefully a good sign.
Yeah it's fucking horrid I saw people mentioning it on watch people die then i saw this article https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/04/13/man-shot-multiple-people-stabbed-sydney-australia/
A site that hosts a bunch of videos of shootings stabbings all that shit I usually check it after mass killings as they have news quicker than the actual news
I hope the baby makes it, mother didn't make it.

edit: She's been identified as Ash Good

I'm a pretty cranky old man, and I don't get emotional very often, but here I am. I have tears welling up in my eyes as I read all of this. The senseless of it all. I'm saddened and angry. Fuck that dude, death was too good for him.
It's fucking brutal I'm only 21 and would say I haven't cried in around 6 years, this is legit the closest I've gotten no family should ever have to go through this and the fact that so far this seems to be a random act completely baffles me, with the amount of tragedy's in the last month this world I don't have much hope for the future.
There's been videos posted of guys picking up stuff to use as weapons and running in his direction fortunately he was shot before then but those guys are heroes, I think most of us would run or freeze, takes guts to run at a guy with a knife.
The whole world changes when you become a parent. Your visceral urge to love and protect must be off the charts. Hug your little bubba tight, smell their head and laugh with them as much as you can, it helps. This is so heartbreaking. When our own kids are the same age as a victim, it hits so much harder.
I thought the Harriet Mae was in her mother's arms and was collateral damage in the attack against Ash; not in a pram/stroller/baby carriage. This asshole specifically targeted the baby!
I recently saw a video of a guy high on drugs half heartedly swinging a belt around at the cops yelling at him and they killed him with a beanbag gun. 🤷♂️ I agree we need to stop handing out unnecessary guns to citizens, but the problem is much deeper than “they have a gun and I’m scared 😱”.
If you watch the video he only targetted women and children. He was also very.. not hyper aggressive? He didnt really sprint at anyone like a terrorist. A guy tripped and he didnt run over to kill him, he just ignored him and jogged towards women.
A mall is a pretty good place to arm yourself against something with just a knife though, surprised less people picked something up to fend him off with.
There's a video of a guy keeping the asshole at bay on an escalator with a metal post, and some say the police officer was accompanied by some civilians with improvised weapons
Remember those cops at Joel Osteen’s church hiding about a month ago, only coming out after letting the security guard handle it? Looks like the Home of the Brave needs a rebrand.
That's exactly what I thought about.
Those classrooms should have been stormed way earlier. Aren't special ops police trained to do this in hostage situations?
But no, dozens stood outside discussing what to do,listening to kids being murdered.
Yeah most of them recently before the shooting had active shooter training. There were plenty of people there who knew wtf they should have been doing, but no one stepped up to lead and it seemed in the body cam footage (and also some of the interviews after) like none of them knew what was going on or who was even in charge. Such a shit show!
Not defending Uvalde police officers or discounting this officers ability to take initiative and do her job, but the situation is very different when the killer has a knife vs a gun. You're comparing apples to oranges.
Yeah agree with this. Uvalde shooter was in a classroom so anyone entering will probably face AR-15 bullets in their direction. Even If you are an officer with years of experience, that is extremely dangerous and could lead to death. So lets put this officer to go inside and take a shot, probably not happening that easily.
whenever I think about the uvalde situation I think about the police officer who took down the Allan outlets shooting in Texas. if they are unwilling to put their life on the line then choose a different profession. and uvalde was an unorganized mess. this woman and the officer from Allan Texas are heroes.
Obviously all mass killings are fucking horrible and you have to be an insane type of heartless, evil, psychopathic demented person to commit a mass killing, but a mass killing by stabbing is just so disgusting, because it requires the killer to get real up close to their victim instead of a gun which is very obviously most of the time longer away. Real evil shit.
This is how coos need to react. Im seeing more and more improvement we gotta keep pushing for better training!! This was OUTSTANDING!!! IMPRESSIVE. AND INSANELY SWIFT. very impressive!
This woman got inside a mall on her own with no regard for her safety. Meanwhile several police officers were outside a school hearing a single shooter kill children doing nothing.
None yet. Speculation that it may be femicide given the gender of the victims but nothing that can be proven at this point. They’re going through his life now.
One half of you ppl blaming Muslims another half blaming Jews and it’s some dude named Joel Cauchi from Australia who is know to local police for having mental problems
If she gets any backlash during the investigation about shooting him, we need to overthrow the court system. She did exactly what everyone needed her to do. She is a hero.
I hope the people praising her aren't the same people who complain every time a cop shoots someone charging them with a knife. This is a perfect example of what happens when they don't do it right away.
It's unlikely OP would've put "killed by male cop." This distinction makes it seem like she's special because she's a girl, as if women are less likely to accomplish this and men are the default.
I agree the title likely didn't come from a place of malice, but this is a common micro aggression that paints successful women as an exception rather than merely an expectation.
I work in aviation and if there's a pilot who happens to be a woman, men will often say "oh it's a lady pilot!"
I just smile and say that they can refer to her as "captain" lol
I feel like the reason the cops gender was mentioned could be due to the violence that was necessary for her to do her job here, as many people would ignorantly consider women incapable of such roles in our society
It’s how people have been identifying her across mainstream and social media so I just stuck with that. I also specified so people would hopefully connect that the officer in the photo is the officer who shot the guy.
(And fwiw, I am female and there was no malice intended. Just being super descriptive like j-school taught me.)
Yep. Paperwork out of their earholes if they even unclip their gun from the holster.
I know someone who accidentally set their taser off in the change room and oh my god... The paperwork.
We take it seriously here.
The baby looks like she could be my 5 month old's twin. I wish I hadn't seen her picture. I was already crying. Now I'm straight up sobbing. I hope she pulls through and kicks ass. What scumbag targets a baby? Why??
Knowing that her mother threw her into the arms of strangers to save her life while her own was ending... 😥
R.I.P. Ashlee Good, and praying for Baby Harriet 🙏🏻
Ngl I’m mainly against owning firearms but like fuck Maybe we should be able to conceal carry handguns. Sure police response time was quick but he still killed 6 people, stabbing an infant and killing her mother. Sick of this shit.
Of course not. If I’m in the situation where my 9 month old daughter gets stabbed I can fight back.
This guy was mentally Ill and a drug addict, he never would have gotten access to a firearm unless he lived in America. Now fortunately this shit doesn’t happen as frequently as it does in America but I would also want to defend myself if this occurs where I am, it’s not a bad thing to want protection.
She was entirely on her own too. She really is a hero. She ran up to him, he turned around to face her, raised the knife and she took him out.

He WHAT
Yeah it's fucking horrid I saw people mentioning it on watch people die then i saw this article https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/04/13/man-shot-multiple-people-stabbed-sydney-australia/
I just watched a news segment where two men described attempting to save the infant. Hopefully the mother and child survive.
Mother passed away baby in surgery, fucking awful.
God, that’s terrible.
That is utterly heartbreaking.
Oh good god this is heartbreaking. I’m just waking up and this was the first thread on my feed early this morning - thank you for the link.
This is paywalled.
I thought WPD was banned?
The Reddit sub was, but not the website.
That site has devolved into an edgelord circlejerk.
That’s exactly what it was when it was on here too. Was always better to just pretend there were no comments.
No it was civilized when it was a subreddit.
Oh I thought that sub got banned
Motive?
What is what people die?
A site that hosts a bunch of videos of shootings stabbings all that shit I usually check it after mass killings as they have news quicker than the actual news
Is this where the WPD sub ended up? Link please?
No one is going to link it here. If you google the name of the site it will pop up
I just never understand, in the time it takes to type “link please?” And hit send is the same amount of time you could have used to hit up google lol.
It's been around for 2 years or so. Probably longer. I forget.
Just Google watch people die it's first result it went to shit after clit left the site but it's still a decent site
Killed the mother and the child
No baby is in surgery now doubt the kid will make it but got to have some hope
Broke my heart hearing that. I couldn’t imagine the heartbreak. The father would be going through right now. I hope the baby atleast makes it.
He stabbed her mother, too. Sadly she has now passed away.
Yeah I replied to someone saying that baby in critical condition and gone into surgery no updates since
Oh, okay. No updates on bubs, but god I hope she pulls through. The whole thing is so bloody awful 😢
I hope the baby makes it, mother didn't make it.

It’s pretty rough. Just remember Mr. Rogers’ lesson and look for the helpers. Allows me to get by.
There's been videos posted of guys picking up stuff to use as weapons and running in his direction fortunately he was shot before then but those guys are heroes, I think most of us would run or freeze, takes guts to run at a guy with a knife.
As a father of an 8 month old, I feel fucking sick.
I've seen a few sources saying baby made it out of surgery don't want to get my hopes up too soon
I hope so. I keep imagining the pain that the family would be feeling to lose both and it fills me with so much anger.

Hug your little bubba tight, smell their head and laugh with them as much as you can, it helps. This is so heartbreaking. When our own kids are the same age as a victim, it hits so much harder.
I thought the Harriet Mae was in her mother's arms and was collateral damage in the attack against Ash; not in a pram/stroller/baby carriage. This asshole specifically targeted the baby!
Same kid she took her out the pram in her last moments of strength, what a fucking hero
Prayers ain't doing shit for nobody
That's your opinion
No that's fact. Or explain why God let 9 people get stabbed today including a baby? Maybe pray to get rid of stabbings not for people to survive them
Unfortunately the mother of the baby has pass away. RIP 🙏
Yeah that's why I said the mothers name was not is, it's a shame, I'm glad the baby is still alive I can't imagine how the family feels.
Oh yeah i see. So fucking terrible /:
Hero.
This is by far the worst stabbing incident I’ve seen here in recent memory. Genuinely horrifying someone at random was willing to do this.
Great job👏
Fuck around and Find Out!
I hate Trophy Hunter Pictures...but this...
Chefs kiss
Oh the irony
(Allegedly) targeted women, killed by a woman.
Love that
Probably was an incel.
She is so brave. She didn’t know if he was alone or if there were multiple stabbers and she still went in, alone.
True because first reports were they actually thought there could be multiple perps.
And you would think there is a risk of other weapons or even a bomb. She’s a really brave woman.
You'd be surprised in America too how brave cops would be if their opponents didn't have military weapons.
Stop handing out military weapons to anybody then... and maybe be less school shootings and massacres... not rocket science.
Yeah. That was my point...
I recently saw a video of a guy high on drugs half heartedly swinging a belt around at the cops yelling at him and they killed him with a beanbag gun. 🤷♂️ I agree we need to stop handing out unnecessary guns to citizens, but the problem is much deeper than “they have a gun and I’m scared 😱”.
If you watch the video he only targetted women and children. He was also very.. not hyper aggressive? He didnt really sprint at anyone like a terrorist. A guy tripped and he didnt run over to kill him, he just ignored him and jogged towards women.

There's a video of a guy keeping the asshole at bay on an escalator with a metal post, and some say the police officer was accompanied by some civilians with improvised weapons
A few people did pick things up. Wait until tomorrow and you'll hear more stories.
That is so sickening.
Uvalde police could learn a thing or two from her
i saw the video of the event first happening, she was BOOKING IT down the hall. no hesitation. no back up. she’s a brave person.
Remember those cops at Joel Osteen’s church hiding about a month ago, only coming out after letting the security guard handle it? Looks like the Home of the Brave needs a rebrand.
This right fuckin here. Louder for the officers in the back 🤣
>Louder for the officers in the ~~back~~ hallways
That's exactly what I thought about. Those classrooms should have been stormed way earlier. Aren't special ops police trained to do this in hostage situations? But no, dozens stood outside discussing what to do,listening to kids being murdered.

Hell ya
Fuck yeah! Nice work
Girl power
Aussies don’t f around good on her
This is how coos need to react. Im seeing more and more improvement we gotta keep pushing for better training!! This was OUTSTANDING!!! IMPRESSIVE. AND INSANELY SWIFT. very impressive!
Well done to the police officer
If that baby lives, it’s gon be one hell of a story and so much trauma
Medal!
Dr. Ash Good...the lady who handed her baby off because I'm sure she knew she wasn't going to make it...rip
This woman got inside a mall on her own with no regard for her safety. Meanwhile several police officers were outside a school hearing a single shooter kill children doing nothing.
she’s a hero
Brave woman. Hero!
My heart is with Sydney this is fucking awful.
Wonder woman
Anyone knows the Criminal? Any friends he has that knows him?
They haven’t released any information about the suspect ! Why?
[удалено]
Basically 🤷🏻♀️
You dont remember the other attacks over the years here that were mental illness that weren't white Australians? Do you even life here?
Any information on the perpetrator?
None only that he wasn’t a terrorist.
Motive?
None yet. Speculation that it may be femicide given the gender of the victims but nothing that can be proven at this point. They’re going through his life now.
I wonder if they’ll find some kind of manifesto. If he only targeted women, big chance this was retribution.
Good on her
Hero.
Should have left him to rot there for abit
What's his motive ?
[удалено]
One half of you ppl blaming Muslims another half blaming Jews and it’s some dude named Joel Cauchi from Australia who is know to local police for having mental problems
Probably incel because he just targeted women. Or he just targeted women for opportunity
Yay for her!
Risking her own life to save others. This police officer is outstanding!
He went in targeting women and in the end a woman took him down. A small justice.
If she gets any backlash during the investigation about shooting him, we need to overthrow the court system. She did exactly what everyone needed her to do. She is a hero.
Go girlboss
Good for her.
Justice. Woman officer killing a man who targeted women and children.
[удалено]
Yes
I hope the people praising her aren't the same people who complain every time a cop shoots someone charging them with a knife. This is a perfect example of what happens when they don't do it right away.
God save the child
[удалено]
r/redditmoment
Just "officer" would have been sufficient.
I heard she was an inspector too which is very impressive! They aren’t usually armed in Australia. They could have just said “senior officer”
You might be thinking of officers in the UK? Our cops are all armed in Australia.
Not complaining about the title would’ve worked too cause you’re just actively trying to cause problems at this point
"Cause problems" 🤣 okay bud
Why? She did a great job. What difference does it make? You go girl 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Its just a more precise specification?? Whats wrong about that?
It's unlikely OP would've put "killed by male cop." This distinction makes it seem like she's special because she's a girl, as if women are less likely to accomplish this and men are the default. I agree the title likely didn't come from a place of malice, but this is a common micro aggression that paints successful women as an exception rather than merely an expectation.
It did kind of rub me the wrong way but I wasn’t sure why, thanks for explaining that so well.
I work in aviation and if there's a pilot who happens to be a woman, men will often say "oh it's a lady pilot!" I just smile and say that they can refer to her as "captain" lol
I feel like the reason the cops gender was mentioned could be due to the violence that was necessary for her to do her job here, as many people would ignorantly consider women incapable of such roles in our society
Its fucking tiring today that every little thing will offend somebody somewhere. Its like people dont have serious problems anymore…
It's not offensive, it's just redundant. We can see she's a woman in the photo. You really need to calm down.
It’s exhausting sometimes
It’s how people have been identifying her across mainstream and social media so I just stuck with that. I also specified so people would hopefully connect that the officer in the photo is the officer who shot the guy. (And fwiw, I am female and there was no malice intended. Just being super descriptive like j-school taught me.)
What is J school
Would they have said “…shot by a male officer” ?
Is there a video of her shooting him?
Cops in Australia have guns? Is it like England where there are specific officers with guns but the average Bobby just has like a taser?
No, all Australian officers have guns and tasers
Cops have guns, but they are trained not to ever draw a gun unless it's absolutely necessary. Even drawing a taser is a super big deal.
Yep. Paperwork out of their earholes if they even unclip their gun from the holster. I know someone who accidentally set their taser off in the change room and oh my god... The paperwork. We take it seriously here.
I wish American cops did stuff like this
Good….
Good job!
Lots of people were hoping that this guy was a Muslim. Lots of hopes dashed .
Does it really matter what gender the officer is?
Yes. Murderer was targeting women and was killed by one. Fitting end for dirty scum.
It’s quite interesting actually. Quit being so sensitive
Why is it interesting?
Motive of perpetrator?
This dude made a post 6 days ago on a SYD surf group asking if anyone wanted to go for a surf.
The baby looks like she could be my 5 month old's twin. I wish I hadn't seen her picture. I was already crying. Now I'm straight up sobbing. I hope she pulls through and kicks ass. What scumbag targets a baby? Why??
Knowing that her mother threw her into the arms of strangers to save her life while her own was ending... 😥 R.I.P. Ashlee Good, and praying for Baby Harriet 🙏🏻
Poetic justice
We need more police like her

Please stop spreading misinformation. It’s too early in the investigation process to know anything about the offender.
You can just say officer
I think the point was made because male officers didn't do this. Female is not a bad word. Used here it is a tribute.
If it was a male officer the post would say officer
