Following the fatal police shooting of 30-year-old Turrell Delonte Campbell on November 22, 2023, the U.S. Park Police officers involved were cleared of wrongdoing. Federal prosecutors found insufficient evidence to charge the officer who shot Campbell, citing a thorough review of evidence including body-worn camera footage, crime scene analysis, and testimony from both law enforcement and civilians. The officer involved had been shot by Campbell, and after a brief struggle, returned fire, fatally wounding Campbell.
