Video of police contact with the woman the night before she shot four people at YouTube

YouTube has bodycam video of police in Mountain View, California making contact with Nasim Aghdam, the woman who shot four people at YouTube headquarters. She was sleeping in her car in a Walmart parking lot in the early morning hours before her attack on YouTube.

A female officer asks her "you don't want to hurt yourself, do you?" "No, she answers. "You don't want to hurt anybody else" Nasim looks down and shakes her head no. Because she avoided eye contact on that question, perhaps the police should have asked her a few more questions along that line.

A little later the female officer asks her, "Why Mountain View?" "I wanted to get out of San Diego. I have memories I don't want to have." Earlier she had indicated problems with her father.

"I wanted somewhere new."

The female officer tries to help her find her password on the new phone. The officers are very nice to her and she thanks them.
