The white police officer who shot Black man Jacob Blake seven times in the back, leaving him paralyzed, will not face criminal charges, Wisconsin prosecutors announced Tuesday.
“It is our decision that no charge will be filed,” Kenosha County District Attorney Michael Graveley said Tuesday, saying the decision followed a “dramatically exhaustive” investigation.
Kenosha Police Officer Rusten Sheskey shot Blake at close range Aug. 23 as the 29-year-old dad was attempting to enter an SUV with three of his young children, ages 8, 5 and 3, in the back seat.
Graveley said he believed there was not enough admissible evidence to bring charges.
