The Mississippi police officer who shot and killed a Black toddler while responding to a shoplifting call will face no criminal charges, the state attorney general announced Monday.
The conclusion of the state’s investigation into the shooting death of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley follows months of mourning and calls for justice, both nationally and in Senatobia, a small town about 40 miles (65 kilometers) south of Memphis, Tennessee, where the shooting took place.
