The odds are she walks.  And may even get rehired.

there is no doubt about her liability.  But in fact the legal battle will likely be as to whether the DPD has any role.

The criminality however will be tougher.  Her story will be she directed the person to put up his hands and stand still and he did not comply.  So she feared for her life and fired.  Odds are that will carry the day with one or more members of the jury.
