Police Video of Justin Elmore Shooting

Child witnessed police shooting

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation interviewed many witnesses after the police shooting of Justin Elmore, but the account provided by an 8-year-old girl seemed most closely to mirror what was seen in police car videos.

The child's statement was in the agency's investigative report shared Tuesday with the Richmond County grand jury. The jury did not indict two sheriff deputies for any criminal charge.

The report was released Wednesday through an Open Records request. It reveals both Deputies Jose Rivera Ortiz and Michael Hodge fired their weapons at Mr. Elmore the afternoon of Dec. 14. The deputies fired eight times total. Mr. Elmore, 23, was shot once in the head.

@scalesofjustice0 maybe if he didnt try to run he will still be here today

@tronclay Again Moron, they were giving him the chance to surrender without unecessary firearms play. When he moved the vehicle after being ordered to stop, he was dead! I worked with and am related to Police officers. In the city where I live we had this very thing happen. Once he attempts to move the vehicle after being ordered to stop he was dead. So quit your whining you liberal sissy and deal with it. And no 12 jury members give 2 craps about a criminal.

Yep cops make mistakes, and some are even dirty, or cover things up. This is not one of those cases. Stop with guns aimed, really does mean stop.

@tronclay I bet you swallow , JUST LIKE YOUR MOTHER SHOULD HAVE!

[tronclay]

@tyeedwrds Cocksucker.

[tyeedwrds]

@tronclay OK stupid one! Let me make this clear so your 3rd grade educated ass can understand it. It was found to be legal in court MORON. The only dick sucker here is you. I said I know full well cops do things illegal. Obviously you're too stupid to read! Homeboy got what he deserved! Can't handle it, move to France where you belong! He was a criminal, he's dead! Cops do things wrong all the time, this wasn't one of them. Never get a charge against these officers!

[tronclay]

@tyeedwrds So because you saw them do it, it must be legal? The word DUUUUURRRRRRR comes to mind. If i see someone piss on an old lady waiting for the bus does that make it legal? If i see a COP pissing on an old lady waiting for the bus does THAT make it legal? Again.... HHUUURRRRR DUUUURRRRR what the fuck is wrong with you? Cops do shit illegally all the time, thats the col dhard truth of the matter. Put down the cop dicks and concentrate on reality.

[tyeedwrds]

@tronclay I know full well what cops are capable of. We were discussing the video. Get over it! He was ordered to stop, he didn't, he was shot. Those are the facts. Only obvious thing here is your intent to label the cops as killers. And as for running not being a shooting offense, wrong. I saw it in DC in broad daylight on the federal courthouse steps. A man resisted, ran and was shot while fleeing. All legal, you are in denial. And can't you speak without profanity? How childish.

[tronclay]

@tyeedwrds ive seen 8 cops show up because a random pedestrian wouldnt give ID when asked because he was filming. You are just a fucking idiot with a mindset that doesnt allow you to believe cops cant do anything wrong at anytime. "as soon as you move the car you are dead" isnt a policy or a law its a fucking moron trying to justify what hes saying by making shit up. Just go sit in the corner someone and play hide the baton with your pigbuds

[tyeedwrds]

@tronclay All cops are briefed on high risk criminals. Look at the number of cop cars! Would there be that many for a traffic stop? In that situation with a felon, you have to assume the worst. A cops duty is to protect himself first. And as far as nut hugging cops, I don't like police, I am related to some. I just know the job they do and how much it sucks because of the low morals of citizens here. No one would convict a cop for this shooting. All I said was think if you're able?

[tronclay]

@tyeedwrds This comment proves you are a fucking idiot. You ask yourself all these bullshit questions about whether or not thwe guys on drugs, if he has a "vest" etc etc.... the fact is as an officer you CANNOT just ASSUME someone is on drugs, has body armor, has fully automatic weapons, has bombs, has a jet ready to airlift him to mumbai, has 50 years worth of spec ops training etc etc etc.... You need a REASON to believe those things or officers would just shoot EVERYONE, moron.
