Pennsylvania officer faces voluntary manslaughter charge in wrong-house shooting
A Pennsylvania deputy coroner? (Correction: Corporal Sean Farrell, 58) Upper Pottsgrove Police was charged with voluntary manslaughter for the Aug. 23 death of Glenwood Earl Pysher IV, a 22-year-old who mistakenly went to the wrong house. Investigators say Farrell had less-lethal options and fired two shots as Pysher, with hands up, walked toward him; the DA says deadly force was unnecessary. Farrell surrendered, bail was set at $75,000, and a preliminary hearing is scheduled for Sept. 10. The case is based on body-cam footage and an investigation by the Montgomery County Detective Bureau, with the family’s attorney saying they seek justice for a preventable death.
