The brother of a Black man shot to death by a deputy in South Carolina over the weekend says he begged the deputy not to shoot and warned of the man’s mental health issues beforehand.
Authorities have said deputies were responding to a domestic violence call when 34-year-old Irvin D. Moorer Charley advanced upon them with a wooden stake outside a Columbia home Saturday, and an attempt to use a stun gun failed to stop him from charging at an officer.
