"Seattle Officer Escapes Felony Charges in Jaahnavi Kandula's Death"

Prosecutors in Washington state have decided not to file felony charges against a Seattle police officer who struck and killed a graduate student from India while responding to an overdose call. The decision comes after Officer Kevin Dave was driving 74 mph in a 25 mph zone with his emergency lights on when he hit 23-year-old Jaahnavi Kandula in a crosswalk. The case gained attention after another officer was recorded making callous remarks about Kandula's death. The city's civilian watchdog found the comments by the officer to be damaging to the department's reputation, and Seattle Police Chief Adrian Diaz is considering the officer's punishment.
