Black Man Murdered by Cops in Front of his Kids. Police Refuse to Release Dashcam Video(s). From [HERE] and [HERE] An Orange County sheriff's deputy has been cleared in the fatal shooting of an unarmed Black Marine Corps. Sergeant who'd crashed his car at San Clemente High School earlier this year.
In a 13-page letter to Sheriff Sandra Hutchens released Friday, prosecutors said Deputy Darren Sandberg, a 15-year veteran of the department, acted reasonably and with sufficient force given the circumstances of the predawn incident in which Manuel Loggins Jr., 31, was shot in a school parking lot after he refused to follow Sandberg's orders. "Consequently, although this incident ended tragically, and in hindsight may have been preventable, we find there is insufficient evidence to prove that Deputy Sandberg's conduct violated criminal law," the prosecutors wrote.
It was an early February morning when Loggins drove with his two young daughters to the high school for a workout on the track and bible study. Driving his Chevy SUV he crashed through the school fence. He exited the car while his two daughters remained inside. He then walked onto the athletic field. He returned within minutes and walked to his car.
When the deputy approached Loggins, he saw something in his hand he couldn’t make out. When Sandberg asked Loggins to put his hands up Loggins ignored him, and then tried to drive away. He shifted the vehicle into drive, whereupon the deputy fired three shots at him. The deputy stated he was in fear for the girls' lives, thinking Loggins would flee recklessly. His daughters 9 and 14, were in the backseat. They were not shot. A toxicology report done on Loggins after his death found no drugs or alcohol in his system. That object that Loggins was holding in his hand turned out not to be a weapon. It was a bible.
