Daily News | Jury deciding fate of ex-Philly cop accused of murder to continue deliberations Wednesday
The case is one of three against former officers brought by District Attorney Larry Krasner since he took office in 2018. The other cases are pending.
Should the jury find Ruch guilty, his sentence would be decided by McDermott. Third-degree murder carries a maximum sentence of 40 years. Ruch fatally shot Plowden after a car chase in the city’s Olney section. Assistant District Attorneys Vincent Corrigan and Brian Collins say Plowden was unarmed and was in the process of surrendering. Ruch, as well as other police on the scene that night, say that they feared Plowden was reaching for a gun before Ruch opened fire.
