A prosecutor says she won’t seek charges against police in North Carolina’s capital city whose officers repeatedly used stun guns on a man who subsequently died
Police have said they were trying to arrest Williams after they found a folded dollar bill with white powd er in his pocket. Freeman's report said officers initially detained Williams after noticing a bag of marijuana in the front seat of a vehicle that he and another passenger had voluntary agreed to exit.
Williams, a Black man, can be heard in body and dashboard camera videos released by police in February protesting that he didn’t do anything and warning that he had a heart problem before what Freeman's report said was the final time he was stunned. “There is no way to substantiate whether they did in fact hear Mr. Williams,” the report said, but “this point alone is not outcome determinative in the legal analysis.”
Raleigh police Lt. Jason Borneo acknowledged the DA’s decision not to charge the six officers involved but declined to comment further on what he described as an internal investigation.
