 The 23-year-old woman was struck and killed by a speeding police officer in a crosswalk in January of 2023. After he investigated the crash, body camera footage showed Otterer laughing and stating that Kandula's life had limited value. The backlash to these comments included condemnation from the government of India, Kandula's home country. In a department-wide email, Interim Chief Rahr says Otterer's actions have brought shame to the SPD and allowing him to remain on the force would bring further dishonor to the department.
