Mississippi releases bodycam footage in student's killing
On Tuesday, Sept. 17, The Mississippi Department of Public Safety released limited body camera footage from the Dec. 10, 2022, shooting death of Florida college student Isaiah Winkley.
Winkley was shot by former Hancock County Sheriff’s Deputy Michael Chase Blackwell after Blackwell, with his police K-9 and Hancock County Sheriff’s Lt. Christopher Sholar and Deputy Lauralyn Yagar, responded to a report of a burglary in progress and encountered a shirtless Winkley holding a t-post.
The video's release comes after a state grand jury in Hancock County found insufficient evidence to indict Blackwell of criminal wrongdoing. However, what happened during the shooting caught the attention of federal authorities, who investigated the case and agreed to forgo criminal charges against Blackwell after entering into a rarely used no-prosecution agreement with the former officer. In exchange for the no-prosecution agreement, Blackwell agreed to surrender his law enforcement credentials and never again serve in law enforcement or security for the rest of his life.
