Charges Filed Against New Mexico Officer in Fatal Shooting of Black Nurse

A police officer in Las Cruces, New Mexico, has been charged with voluntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a Black man at a gas station last August. The officer, Brad Lunsford, shot Presley Eze in the back of the head at point-blank range during a scuffle after Eze allegedly placed his hand on another officer's taser. The state attorney general accused the district attorney of obstructing the investigation by withholding key videos and images. The attorney general emphasized the need for accountability in cases of police misconduct.
