Two former Stockton, California officers were indicted by a grand jury in connection with their alleged beating of a Black teenager at the end of a car chase in 2020.
She said two other officers investigated by her office for their role in the encounter faced no allegations, but she couldn't say why because the grand jury's transcripts were still sealed. Stiles and Villapudua were fired by the city in spring for acting outside the department's policy and training, Stockton Police Chief Eric Jones said at the time.
Carter's family is in the midst of a federal lawsuit against the city and the officers who detained the boy following the Dec. 30 chase. Their attorney, John Burris, released photos of Carter's face bruised and swollen and compared the violence against him to that used by Los Angeles Police Department officers against Rodney King in 1991.
The boy's father, George Carter, said at a news conference Friday that he believes he will suffer"lifelong trauma."The teen was wanted for alleged reckless driving and led officers on a chase for a few minutes until his vehicle was spun out in what law enforcement describes as the pursuit intervention technique, or PIT maneuver, according to police and court documents.
