Suspect's Family Sues Cop For Millions After Fatal Shooting, Jury Gives Them Nothing - The Police Tribune

Suspect's Family Sues Cop For Millions After Fatal Shooting, Jury Gives Them Nothing - The Police Tribune: An Arkansas jury on Monday found that Little Rock Police Officer Dennis Hutchins did not use excessive force when he fatally shot 46-year-old Roy Lee Richards Jr. in 2016. The ruling dashed Richards’ family’s hopes they would be awarded millions of dollars for the death of the armed man. The incident occurred at 12:40 a.m. on Oct. 25, 2016 when Little Rock police responded to a call for a fight between Richards and his uncle, Darrell Underwood, in the 500-block of East Eighth Street, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported.
