Orange County Real House Ladies aum Lydia McLaughlin and her family responds to newly released body phase pictures showing the moments that led to the fatal shooting from his brother Geoffrey Stirling.
“The videos have raised serious concerns and many questions about the actions of that police officer,” the Stirling family – which included McLaughlin, 44, along with her father Scott and brother Jesse – It is said in a statement provided by their lawyers to Weekly US On Thursday, May 8. “Of serious and specific concern is that the videos appear to show that Geoff is moving away from the officer at the time he was shot six times. The family through their attorneys intend to file a legal case in the federal court for full answers and seek liability.”
On Wednesday, May 7, Newport Beach Police Department released a criminal event community briefing – including body step pictures -All details the shooting events relating to an officer that took place on April 17 with Geoffrey.
“The Newport Beach Police Department remains committed to transparency and accountability in all its operations,” the department said in a statement through Facebook. “Release this video is part of our ongoing efforts to update the community and engage.”
In the briefing, sergeant Steve Oberon He explained that a shooting involved with an officer had taken place after “Mr Stirling hit the officer several times in his head and then moved the officer’s taser from his duty belt.”
Later, he showed the officer’s body step pictures asking Geoffrey to sit on the pavement edge away from his motorcycle. “I don’t want to sit down or come here,” replied Geoffrey before trying to reach for his own ID. “Don’t shoot me.”
When the officer appeared to turn his back short to go on his radio, Geoffrey appeared to appear towards him before a rebellion between the two sides took place. At one time, Geoffrey seems to have grabbed the Cop Taser and pointed it to the cop. The officer then shot him six times.
Geoffrey’s family suggests that the body’s stage pictures tell a different story.
“Geoff was experiencing a mental health crisis when he was stopped for a traffic break. Geoff was disarmed and did not pose a deadly threat to the officer,” the family claimed in a statement. “The Stirling family expects that all video and audio photos should be kept along with all reports and tear evidence associated with this annoying shooting for submission in due course as part of the legal case the family will follow. The cause of death was to lose blood. Despite the loss of blood. Despite the presence of multiple officers reporting to the scene, no assistance was offered to start.”
In the briefing video, however, Sergeant Oberon said officials “had drawn up a plan to take Mr Stirling into custody and started to provide medical assistance. A few minutes after the shooting, Newport Beach Fire Department arrived at the spot and taking medical treatment.”
