Grand jury to hear case of officer who shot naked man

Grand jury to hear case of officer who shot naked man
That this is so unusual is a travesty. "The felony murder counts do not indicate malice, but rather that Olsen killed someone during the commission of another felony, in this case aggravated assault or violation of his oath of office, James said. Olsen violated the department's use of force policy and lied during the investigation, James said. Olsen's attorney, Don Samuel, said they are disappointed in the grand jury's decision, but he noted that the defense was not allowed to present any of its witnesses, experts or evidence and was not allowed to challenge any of the prosecution's evidence." Only showing the prosecution's side of the story is how grand juries work for the rest of us.
