Article Excerpt:
An attorney representing the family of 13-year-old Devin Brown, who was fatally shot by police at the end of a car chase, filed a wrongful-death claim against the city, alleging that inadequate police policies led to the death. Brian Dunn, an attorney in the law firm run by O.J. Simpson lawyer Johnnie Cochran, framed the legal action as a cry for justice for the family and a remedy for a "culture of violence" within the Los Angeles Police Department. Dunn blamed Brown's death on "the outdated policies of the LAPD and the negligent tactics of the officers in question." "Any decision to fire even one bullet into a moving vehicle is not proper procedure," he said. "It's a bad tactic." The Los Angeles Police Commission last week changed the department's shooting policy to prevent officers from firing at moving cars unless they considered their lives or those of bystanders in danger. Officers will be trained to get out of the way of a vehicle that is moving toward them and cannot in most circumstances consider a vehicle itself to be a threat. Officials had been contemplating the change since a similar shooting a year ago but fast-tracked the action after Devin's death, on Feb. 6. Police Chief William J. Bratton said the new rules make it more difficult for police officers to fire on moving vehicles but acknowledged that they would not eliminate the practice. Dunn said Tuesday that the LAPD took too long to change the policy and that there was no evidence that the officer had fired his gun because he feared for his life. Dunn also questioned the number of shots fired at Devin. "We want to know why he fired the first round, why he fired the second round, why he fired the third round, the fourth round, the fifth round, the sixth round, the seventh round, the eighth round, the ninth round, the tenth round," he said. "We want to know what this little boy did to give this police officer a reason to kill him."
