A 15 year old, 200 pound trained monkey was killed in Conecticut for seriously injuring a woman. But was it handled correctly?

They say its 70 year old owner stabbed it a few times with a kitchen knife to get it off the 55 year old woman it attacked. Isn’t that going to have the same sort of “rage” effect as when the bullfighter stabs the bull? And if the owner couldn’t handle it, why was it loose in the house? Ultimately the monkey opens the car door of a policeman who then shoots the animal. So why was the car door unlocked? A spokesman for the police said there wasn’t enough time to deploy tasers. Why?
Don’t get me wrong. Human life over animal’s but I’m not sure neither the woman (who’s injuries may be fatal now) nor the animal needed to get hurt.
