Durham DA clears law enforcement officers in 3 unrelated shootings from January

Durham County District Attorney Satana Deberry sent letters last month to her colleagues in the Durham Police Department, Durham Sheriff's Office and the Duke University Police Department, clearing officers in each agency for their roles in incidents in which law enforcement officers shot and killed people in January.

A single deputy fired a single shot that killed Wilson. Deberry's office found insufficient evidence for criminal charges against him.

Deberry's office found that a reasonable officer in the same position would have reasonably believed Piquet's actions "constituted an imminent threat of deadly physical force."

Deberry's office used body camera footage, 911 calls, police records and reports and autopsy findings to determine that a Duke University officer used necessary force to shoot and kill Raishawn Steven Jones as Jones struggled with Officer Christopher Stone of the Durham Police Department.
