Grand Jury Declines Charges in Edelin Shooting | Newark News
Description
A New Jersey grand jury has decided not to press charges against Officer Luke Falkenberg in the November 2024 shooting death of Keith Edelin. After reviewing extensive evidence—including 911 calls, body cam footage, witness statements, and the autopsy report—the jury found insufficient grounds to meet the legal threshold for criminal charges. The incident occurred when officers responded to a bloodstained building, encountered Edelin with a knife on the top floor, and repeatedly instructed him to drop it, claiming they were there to help. The Attorney General’s Office has now closed its investigation, leaving no charges to be filed.
