Miami Police has officially revealed the name of the police
officer who this week shot and wounded Charles Kinsey, a black man who
was unarmed and worked as a Therapist for autistic patients. See the full story
here.
North
Miami city manager Larry M. Spring said Officer Jonathan Aledda, 30, a
member of Miami's SWAT unit who has served on the force for four years
is responsible for mistakenly shooting Charles Kinsey while the
therapist rushed to the aid of his troubled patient.
According
to Larry Spring, Aledda's identity wasn't revealed at first due to the
death threats he's been receiving since footage of the shooting went
viral online.
Spring also revealed that a
second police officer, Cmdr. Emile Hollant, has been suspended without
pay for giving conflicting statements about the events surrounding the
shooting while Aledda has already been placed on administrative leave.
