QuoteBetty Shelby left the police department in Tulsa, Oklahoma, after she was acquitted of manslaughter in the 2016 fatal police shooting of an unarmed black man.
She returned Tuesday, and a lot of people weren't happy about it.
Shelby, now working for a sheriff's office in a nearby county, came back to Tulsa to teach a course on helping police officers "survive" the aftermath of controversial shootings such as the one in which she was involved.
"Participants will be exposed to many of the legal, financial, physical, and emotional challenges which may result from a critical incident in an effort to prepare (law enforcement officers) for the aftermath," reads the course description on the website.

Shelby has said she'll teach fellow officers how to deal with what she calls the "Ferguson effect," a reference to the 2014 shooting and subsequent unrest surrounding the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.
She told CNN affiliate KTUL the Ferguson effect is "When a police officer is victimized by anti-police groups and tried in the court of public opinion."
Shelby's teaching of the course -- "Surviving the Aftermath of a Critical Incident" -- sparked a protest Monday from those who say it's insensitive and an insult for her to teach it, especially in Tulsa, where she, as a police officer, shot and killed Terence Crutcher.
