佛罗里达州前副警长埃迪·杜兰因2024年5月在公寓内枪杀黑人空军飞行员罗杰·福特森而被控过失杀人罪,陪审团在周四经过约两小时的审议后宣判其无罪1。若被定罪,杜兰最多将面临30年监禁1。警方当时是在回应一份后来被证实为虚假的家庭骚扰报警后赶到现场1。
福特森家族对判决结果表示反对,其律师本·克鲁普表示"罗杰的生命和他的服务将永远重要"1。家属宣布将在联邦法院继续追求民权诉讼以寻求问责1。杜兰已被解雇1。
A Florida jury has found former sheriff's deputy Eddie Duran not guilty of manslaughter in the May 2024 shooting death of Roger Fortson, a Black air force airman 1. The panel reached its verdict after approximately two hours of deliberation 1. Duran had faced up to 30 years in prison had he been convicted 1.
The shooting occurred when police responded to a domestic violence call that was later determined to be false 1. Following the acquittal, Fortson's family indicated they intend to pursue accountability through civil litigation 1. Attorney Ben Crump, representing Fortson's family, stated that "Roger's life and his service will matter forever," and confirmed the family will pursue a civil rights lawsuit in federal court 1. Duran has since been terminated from his position 1.
