Lawyers for the three officers accused in the Philadelphia shooting death of eight-year-old Fanta Bility have argued that the judge in the case should dismiss their manslaughter charges.
Attorneys for Devon Smith, Brian Devaney, and Sean Dolan said the officers aren’t responsible for the death of the girl and that they were facing unfair treatment because they are members of law enforcement, reports the The Philadelphia Inquirer. The officers noted that that their profession is under extra scrutiny amid the current cultural climate.
