Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy announced yesterday that no charges will be filed in the death of Jarveon Hudspeth, who was shot by a county sheriff's officer during a traffic stop. The sheriff's office says the officer was injured after being dragged over 100 yards during the incident. A redacted version of the video of Hudspeth's death was released. Mulroy also announced the release of video in three other officer-involved shootings previously determined not to warrant charges, the Commercial Appeal reports. All videos are now available on the district attorney’s website. The release of redacted videos is in accordance with a new policy to release footage of fatal shootings sooner.
