An unbelievable scene unfolded outside of the LA Country’s DA’s house.
Jackie Lacey had reportedly promised to meet with representatives of the radical group “Black Lives Matter” after they butted heads with her over certain cases being handled by the D.A.’s office.
When Melina Abdullah showed up at Mrs. Lacey’s home for a “community meeting” she was greeted at the door by Mr. Lacey, with a gun.
According to Ms. Adbullah, Mr. Lacey cocked the gun, pointed it at her chest and said: “I’ll shoot you, I don’t care who you are!”
The entire incident was caught on video and uploaded to Twitter.

I’m front of DA Jackie Lacey’s house for that community meeting she promised with the @BLMLA crew. Rang her bell to invite her.
Her husband pulled a gun, cocked it, pointed it at my chest and said “I’ll shoot you. I don’t care who you are.” @WP4BL @RealJusticePAC @shaunking pic.twitter.com/WtazUWSJIC

The L.A. Times reported that demonstrators knocked on the front door of L.A. County District Attorney Jackie Lacey at 5:40 a.m. PT when a man they identified as her husband, David Lacey, opened and pointed a weapon, according to Melina Abdullah, a professor of Pan-African studies at Cal State Los Angeles, and protest organizer Justin Marks.
“We heard the gun cocking, and I thought I was being paranoid,” Abdullah told NBC News. “But then he opened the door, leading with the gun. He saw me and lowered it, pointing it at my chest.”
Marks said he too heard the weapon being locked into firing position on the other side of the door, at Lacey’s home in the Granada Hills neighborhood of northwest L.A.
“I thought it was someone dropping keys and Melina said, ‘Well that doesn’t sound good,'” Marks said. “There was no hello, no face, just a gun pointing out.”
Organizers who were there to protest the D.A. office’s handling of certain cases said the home is outfitted with security cameras and anyone inside could have easily seen the 30 protesters outside.
