He made three shots and killed a 24-year-old black man, his name was Maurice Granton Jr. Policemen assure that they saw him the one of monitoring cameras and identified him on the scene later.
Despite the police officer`s evidence, Joanna Varnado, Granton`s sister, is convinced that the officer exceeded the powers and killed her brother for other reasons. Perhaps, it could be a racial intolerance. Granton`s wife also has doubts that the weapon belonged to her husband.
