The lawsuit alleges troopers used excessive force and that the State Police attempted to “thwart public oversight” of the December 2020 killing.
HARRISBURG — The parents of a Chinese American teenager fatally shot by Pennsylvania State Police filed a federal lawsuit on Wednesday against the troopers involved and the local district attorney’s office, alleging authorities tried to “cover up the unlawfulness” of the killing by making misleading statements and refusing to release the full video of the incident.
The Monroe County DA’s office previously defended its investigation and actions to Spotlight PA. Evanchick, the State Police commissioner, declined a request to be interviewed last year, and his department declined to comment at the time because of pending litigation. Christian Hall posted a picture on Snapchat of the overpass with the text “who would miss me,” according to aWhen State Police troopers arrived a short time later, they found Hall on the overpass’ concrete ledge looking down. In his hand was a pellet gun, which troopers believed to be real. State Police video shows troopers talking to Hall, trying to get him to put down the gun and walk toward them.
In Pennsylvania, local district attorneys investigate police shootings unless they recuse themselves and send the case to the state attorney general. In this case, Monroe County District Attorney E. David Christine Jr. and his assistant Michael Mancuso investigated the killing along with the State Police.
“Frankly, it’s a testament to the troopers that they didn’t shoot sooner,” Mancuso said during the press conference.
