Tap title to read story
An independent autopsy revealed no exit wound or bullet on 18-year-old Jabari Peoples, fatally shot by an Alabama police officer. Attorney Ben Crump is demanding the release of bodycam footage showing the June 23rd incident, claiming Peoples, unarmed and with no criminal history, was shot in the back. Police claim a struggle ensued after Peoples allegedly grabbed a handgun, while his girlfriend disputes this, stating he was unarmed and approached by an unidentified officer. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, investigating the case, refuses to release the video, despite the police department's earlier promise to show it to the family. Peoples' family is demanding transparency and the release of the evidence.
