In their second attempt to convict former Citronelle Police Chief Tyler Norris, federal prosecutors Monday played video from officers’ body cameras.
violated the constitutional rightsThe body cam footage shows Norris going into McCree’s vehicle and trying to handcuff him after other officers already had gone in. The prosecution contends it was unjustified force on a suspect who was not resisting. The defense maintains that the chief was trying to get the suspect under control in a potentially dangerous situation.
“I didn’t know if something was done that violated Isaiah’s rights, and if they were, I didn’t want to be part of it,” Wilson said on the witness stand. Defense attorney Jeff Deen, on cross-examination, went through Wilson’s employment history. After graduating from the police academy in 2018, he spent nine months in the Mobile Police Department until he was fired for failure to meet minimum standards. He’s since worked for several different law enforcement agencies.
