Judge says media organizations don’t have standing to request the video. — PolitiTweet.org

On a second petition for release of bodycam video, from county sheriff on behalf of Brown’s son Khalil Ferebee, judge says - public release will be delayed 30-45 days - Khalil Ferebee + atty will allowed to VIEW video after faces blurred and other redactions, within next 10 days — PolitiTweet.org

In Pasquotank County, judge says media organizations are not covered by state law allowing for release of bodycam video. Denies request. — PolitiTweet.org

Tadych says the sheriff, the family, and the media want the tape released. The state Bureau of Investigation hasn’t taken a position. He says only the DA and the attorney for unknown clients (who spoke about the safety of the officers) opposes it. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Tadych mentions the death of George Floyd as an example of the critical role of video evidence in sorting out the truth when there are differing accounts of killings by police. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Media attorney Mike Tadych says the stark contrast between the Brown family’s account of the shooting and DA Womble’s characterization of the footage is all the more reason to release it: “The best vaccine to rumor is fact.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Up next: attorneys for a coalition of 20 media outlets requesting release of the full bodycam recordings from the day of the shooting. Atty says media seeks “transparency” - not to indict or exonerate anyone. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Judge says he WILL render a decision this morning on petitions to release bodycam footage from the fatal shooting of #AndrewBrownJr. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
“The officers are very distraught. They feel for the family of Andrew Brown,” the attorney says, adding, “We believe the shooting was justified.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Says death threats are being made against officials, raises fear that the “wrong person” could be targeted if images of officers are released, or that reputation of someone who has “done nothing” may be harmed. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Attorney also raises concerns that video release could “exert influence” on the jury and other judicial proceedings. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Another attorney whose name I’m not 100% on so I’m not going to tweet is representing unnamed clients. Says his clients oppose release of video out of concerns about safety of some people in the video, including officers. Says he does not see a “need” for public to see footage. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Womble says the car moved and “made contact with law enforcement” before deputies began shooting. Asks judge to admonish attorneys against making “extrajudicial comments” that could prejudice the jury. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
In court, Womble calls out Chantel Cherry-Lassiter, attorney for Brown family, accuses her of making comments intended to prejudice judicial proceedings, and claims some of her statements were “patently false.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
In sum: Womble argues that either 1) he should release the video after 30 days if he decides NOT to bring charges or 2) if charges are brought, the video should be released in court. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Womble also allows that he may come back in 30 days and ask for another delay if there’s a “change in circumstances.” He says that means if he believes criminal charges are required - in which case he would only want it released in court after charges have been brought. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Womble says there are four body cams. The judge says he spent “hours” last night reviewing the footage. Womble asks the judge to immediately “disclose” any footage he deems to be “appropriate” to the Brown family. Asks Judge to release video in 30 days. — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
I’m still outside - most reporters are not being allowed in - but watching a pool feed for media of the hearing, which is underway. Right now, DA Andrew Womble is arguing against release of the bodycam video, saying it could interfere with the investigation. #AndrewBrownJr — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
