Family of man killed in Mt. Juliet officer-involved shooting files wrongful death lawsuit
Relatives of a man shot and killed by a Mt. Juliet police officer during a traffic stop last November have filed a wrongful death lawsuit.
Body camera footage shows 39-year-old Eric Allen move from the passenger seat to the driver’s side of the vehicle, while being questioned by Sergeant Josh Lo. Allen started to drive off after Sgt. Lo asked him to step out. The officer jumped into the car, while screaming for Allen to stop.
Attorneys for Allen's mother, Linda Allen, have filed a multi-million-dollar lawsuit "seeking justice and accountability" for the loss.
In a statement to FOX 17 News Monday, the Mt. Juliet Police Department says Sgt. Lo's actions were deemed justified by a Wilson County Grand Jury.
The men and women of the Mt. Juliet Police Department dedicate themselves to the department’s core values of compassion, commitment, courage, competence, and integrity. As police officers, we swore an oath to uphold those values, support the Constitution, and honor the sanctity of human life. Sgt. Lo took that same oath. While much of the TBI investigative findings are not public at this moment, Sgt. Lo returned to duty after a preliminary review of the incident, which his actions are clear in the entirety of the released body worn camera video. In addition,
Please know Sgt. Lo’s actions were deemed justified by a Wilson County Grand Jury as well.
Read the statement from the Allen family below:
"In the wake of this devastating loss, we are profoundly grateful for the unwavering support from our friends, the community, and all those who have extended their compassion during this difficult time. We humbly ask the public to join us in our relentless pursuit of justice. Together, we can make a difference and prevent such heart-wrenching tragedies from shattering more lives."
