State Attorney Robert Berlin announced on Wednesday that Illinois police officers involved in the fatal shooting of an unarmed man will not face criminal charges. The incident occurred in Carol Stream, Illinois, where a 30-year-old man named Isaac Goodlow was shot and killed by a police officer in his dark bedroom.
The prosecutor in DuPage County stated that the officer, who claimed self-defense, was deemed legally justified in using deadly force against Goodlow. According to Berlin, the evidence did not support filing criminal charges as it did not meet the standard of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
