Killer cop to go on trial

 

Fairfax County cop Wesley Shifflett, charged with involuntary manslaughter and reckless discharge of a weapon in the killing of 37-year-old unarmed Timothy McCree Johnson over a pair of sunglasses on Feb. 22, 2023 is finally going before a court of law.

Shifflett and another Fairfax County cop chased Johnson, during the night, on foot after receiving a report from security guards that Johnson had stolen sunglasses from a Nordstrom department store in Tysons Corner Center.

Shifflett told another cop that he saw Johnson reaching for a weapon in his waistband but no such weapon was found.
