Officers Sue Journalist Over Acquittal Coverage
Published 3 days, 7 hours ago
Description
Two cops acquitted of killing a pianist in custody are suing a journalist for defamation — a case that unraveled after the outlet softened its language and the officers waited nearly two years to act. The man died during a mental health crisis, and while the jury cleared the officers, a post-trial article labeled them killers — prompting legal action that ended in mutual dismissal.
