Florida sheriff’s office fires deputy who fatally shot Black airman at home
A Floridasheriff on Friday fired a deputy who fatally shot a Black airman at his home while holding a handgun pointed to the ground.
Okaloosa County Sheriff Eric Aden fired Deputy Eddie Duran, who fatally shot Senior Airman Roger Fortson on May 3 after responding to a domestic violence call and being directed to Fortson’s apartment.
Body camera video shows that when the deputy arrived outside Fortson’s door, he stood silently for 20 seconds outside and listened, but no voices inside were heard on his body camera.
Not going to hold my breath for any actual justice here.
The cop will get off and slither to the department 2 towns over.
As is tradition. How many times must this happen before we start holding cops accountable for their actions? How can you uphold the law while standing on top of it and pissing all over it?
But why would they hire him when the first department give him a glowing recommendation?
Oh, I see.
It might in this particular case simply because we're talking about an active duty military man who got murdered.
On the other hand, he was black and this is Florida, so who knows?
Two right wing symbols involved: military and police. Anything can happen here.
Sure but a black man was shot in Florida so I'm not holding out any hope here especially in that racist ass state that let a guy get away with killing a black kid over some skittles.
@stoly @inclementimmigrant Yeah, but he was a black airman, so sure, the deputy got fired, but I’m not holding my breath that he won’t just be hired by another force nearby and the whole thing swept away.
