The French family lawyer ever says Yon Jung that you want an investigation by third -party providers.

Officer Thompson was released at the shootout after an examination found that he was justified with fatal violence.

The family, who was dissatisfied with the result, submitted a federal action for false death.

The lawsuit is still pending and an application to keep the video with the US district court sealed.

The full statement of the family's lawyer is below.

May Jung LLP condemns the non-authorized leak of Body-Graun Camera (BWC) material in connection with the murder of Otis French Jr. and the way in which it was released, and represents a serious violation of the legal proceedings and a direct violation of the clear instructions of the chairman to keep these videos under Seal connection. This violation of an “anonymous” person seems to be an inappropriate attempt to attempt certain individuals or their associated companies, manipulating legal proceedings and public opinion.

While the family of Mr. French Jr. consistently campaigned for the complete transparency and the publication of this footage, they also stopped the instructions of the court. The unauthorized publication of this film material – submitted in a way that tries to justify Mr. French's murder by indicating criminal investigations and the procedure is deeply worrying. As claimed in our complaint, the criminal investigation of the death of Mr. French was incorrect, biased and could not correspond to the constitutional standards.

It is crucial that our customer-die plaintiffs had no access to this film material in this case-based on the basis of legal restrictions. His sudden publication raises serious questions about how it was preserved and by whom. The main department of the sheriff department of the sheriff of the sheriff (BCSD MCU of the district of Baldwin), which carried out a compromised and contradictory investigation, previously refused to publish the footage of Mr. French. The non -authorized disclosure underlines in a way that is apparently advantageous for the accused, the urgent need to complete this violation.

“We will not allow this case to have improper influence or try to rewrite history,” said Yon Jung, partner and lawyer of the French family in May Jung llp. “The leak of this film material is an outrageous and illegal attempt to delay the public perception and to escape responsibility. We call for an objective examination of the third -party provider for the leak. The responsible persons must be identified and fitted to account.”

May Jung LLP requires a complete examination of this leak, including potential legal consequences for those who are responsible for the violation of court commands and affect the integrity of this case. We will pursue all available legal remedies to protect the rights of our customers and ensure that justice is not hindered by those who want to manipulate the process.
