Police Involved in The Fatal Shooting of a Black Teenager Feels "Legally Justified" as Body Camera Footage of Tennessee School Shooting Is Released – Your Black World

By Victor Omondi
After the public mounted pressure on authorities to release the bodycam footage of the April 12 police shooting of a 17-year-old student at Austin-East Magnet High School in Knoxville, Tennessee, the video was finally released after a nine-day investigation was carried out by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
Knox County District Attorney Charme Allen announced on April 21 that the police involved in the fatal shooting of the teenager was justified.
“This is a self-defense case,” Allen said during a news conference.
On that fateful day, teenager Anthony Thompson Jr. and his girlfriend, Alexus Page, who study at the same school, had reportedly engaged in a physical fight.

The last month has been a nightmare for so many communities; the spa shootings in Atlanta, the attack just outside of Denver, and now the shooting in Indianapolis. Old wounds are very much still present, especially for Coloradoans, who vividly remember the events of the Columbine Shooting on April 20, 1999, 22 years ago this week.

24 hours of peace rally calls for end to violence in Nashville

A 24-hour demonstration to celebrate community and peaceful coexistence, and gather against violence kicked off Friday in Nashville.
The effort, "24 Hour Display of Power: 24 Hours of Complete Peace," will focus on solidarity and building power amongst community members in an effort to take back the city, community organizer Gicola Lane said Friday.
A rally and march in connection with the demonstration are slated for Saturday.
"The goal is to really just call for absolute peace across the city," Lane said. "Our community is in pain. We have experienced a large influx of violence from multiple directions. We've lost a lot of people to both community and police violence.... We're asking the entire city to display unity."

No charges will be brought against the officers involved in the fatal shooting of a teenager at Austin-East Magnet High School in Knoxville, Tennessee, the Knox County District Attorney announced Wednesday.
Knox County District Attorney Charme Allen, who also released security and body camera footage, said her office has reviewed all the evidence in the case. From the evidence collected, Allen said she would not be bringing charges against any responding officers because it was reasonable for that officer who fired to feel his and the other officers’ lives were in danger.

DA Will Not Charge Officer Who Shot Teen In School Bathroom
The Knox County district attorney said Officer Jonathon Clabough acted in "self-defense" after 17-year-old Anthony J. Thompson Jr. fired a handgun.
No charges will be filed against police officers in last week’s shooting death of a Black Tennessee teen inside of his high school’s bathroom after it was determined that the 17-year-old fired a handgun at the officers, giving them a justifiable fear of danger, the district attorney said.
“This is a self-defense case,” Knox County District Attorney Charme Allen, speaking at a press conference Wednesday, said of the April 12 shooting of 17-year-old Anthony J. Thompson Jr. “At the end of the day, we have found the shooting by Officer [Jonathon] Clabough was justified.”

Knoxville Woman Apologizes for Calling Police on Anthony J. Thompson Jr.

Last week,
The Rootreported that 17-year-old Anthony J. Thompson Jr. was shot and killed by police officers in the restroom of Austin-East Magnet High School in Knoxville, Tenn., after police responded to a call about a “possibly armed” student.

Law enforcement officials originally reported that before he was killed, Anthony shot one of the officers who had gone into the restroom with their guns drawn, but later they corrected the report saying the bullet that hit the officer didn’t come from Anthony’s gun and that the gun had gone off during a struggle.
Now, the woman who called the police in the first place—who turns out to be the mother of Anthony’s girlfriend—is apologizing for calling the cops, and says she never indicated that Anthony was armed.
