Officer Geoffrey Thom was charged with murder. It’s the first time in more than 40 years that a Honolulu police officer has been charged in a fatal shooting. Honolulu prosecutors filed charges against the three officers after a grand jury decided not to indict them, arguing a trial should be held regardless. He said the incident only ended after Sykap was shot and the car fell into a canal.
He noted the teenager, 16-year-old Iremamber Sykap, led the officers on a high-speed chase immediately before the April 5 shooting, refusing commands to stop.
