Friday, October 6, 2023 12:15AMManuel "Manny" EllisEllis, an unarmed Black man, was restrained by three police officers in Washington state on March 3, 2020, and a medical examiner ruled the cause of death as a homicide.
In 2021, Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson filed felony charges against officers Christopher Burbank, Matthew Collins, and Timothy Rankine. Burbank and Collins were charged with second-degree murder and Rankine was charged with first-degree manslaughter. All three have pleaded not guilty and the defense claimed drugs found in Ellis' system may have contributed to his death instead.
In his opening statement on Tuesday, Burbank's attorney Brett Purtzer said Ellis came to the passenger side of the police patrol car, which Burbank and Collins were in, and told Burbank while using an expletive that he ought to punch him in the face. Ellis also beat on the window, Purtzer claimed. They "will tell you ... Mr. Ellis was not aggressive, was not violent, never attacked the officers," Liu told the jury. "In fact, it was the officers that [were] attacking Mr. Ellis."
The county medical examiner ruled Ellis' death as a homicide due to "hypoxia due to physical restraint." Although blood collected from Ellis showed the presence of methamphetamine, the medical examiner said his death was not likely caused by methamphetamine intoxication, according to the probable cause statement."politically motivated witch hunt."
