Inquiry in Dyer case confirms criminal means verdict
The inquest jury ruled Dyer s death occurred by criminal means after witnesses from both the coroner s inquest and grand jury testified.

Sweeney, a witness, testified the rifle discharged accidentally as he tried to engage the safety. He and other narcotics officers had been in a bar before the midnight raid on the Comstock Avenue apartment complex, testifying they had consumed only beer.
