OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
A Shelby county deputy approached Jarveon Hudspeth who initially cooperated, exited the car, held still for a pat-down but police never accused Hudspeth of anything. Hudspeth cooperated and reportedly even informed police that he had a legal gun in the car.
It is unknown why the situation changed to being threatening but Hudspeth retreated to his car based on the interaction with police and the officer lunged through the window into the car, landing on top of him as the car wobbled, moved with an officer on top of the driver of a moving vehicle. The officer eventually fell out of the vehicle and fired shots at Hudspeth, killing him. It is unknown why this initially civil traffic stop spiraled out of control to find an officer lunging at a driver in a moving vehicle. The killing was ruled Justified by the District Attorney.
Ben Crump is representing the family.
