Court grants Cleveland officers immunity in shooting case
The 6th U S Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 that Cleveland officers David Wilsman and Matthew Raeppler are entitled to official immunity in a civil suit filed by Adolph Boyd’s family. The decision reverses a 1999 ruling that allowed the case to proceed, citing that Boyd pointed a gun and refused to drop it, justifying the officers’ use of force.
