Prosecutors representing Ohio Vice President Jason Mead, who assassinated 23-year-old Casey Goodson while working for the U.S. Marshals Service Fugitive Task Force last week, released a statement Thursday. Killed. Gutson’s family said he took a sandwich bag and was killed on the doorstep of his grandmother’s house. “At no point did the deputy meet make a sandwich mistake with the gun,” Franklin County Sheriff’s deputy attorneys said in a statement. “Mr. Gutson pointed his gun at the deputy mead. It has been confirmed that our customer gave Mr. Gutson verbal orders to drop the gun.” This report marks the first time Meade’s perspective has been presented to the public since the December 4 shooting. U.S. Police say it was not captured on body camera footage because the marshals, Columbus police and Gutson’s family all provided different accounts of the moments that led to Gutson’s death. U.S. Marshall Peter Tobin said Goodson fired and fired at Goodson on Friday, and a man told investigators that he heard Mead Goodson drop his weapon before firing, CBS affiliate WBNS-TV reported. The Columbus Police Department, which is investigating the shooting, said Mead “saw a man with a gun” and that “there were reports of a verbal altercation before the shooting.” Police said they recovered the gun from Goodson, who was not the target of the task force’s investigation, but did not say whether he fired the gun before he was killed. Police said they did not identify any eyewitnesses. Gutson’s family took sandwiches to his family when he was shot in the back in the doorway by his grandmother as he was returning home from a dental meeting. Family lawyer Sean Walton told CBS News that Goodson fell into the house in front of the children and his 72-year-old grandmother. Casey Goodson Jr. in outdated photo.

The Walton family did not find the gun at the scene, but insisted that Ohio was an open state and that Gutson had a valid license to carry a weapon. “Unfortunately we do not know if he had a gun on him because we have no answers at this time as to what happened because Jason Mead chose to take Casey’s life that day,” Walton told CBS News. “But, you know, it’s not surprising if he had a gun on him, because he had every right to have a gun on him that day. That, too, was not a crime.” Columbus Division police are investigating the shooting and the judiciary announced earlier this week that it was reviewing the case for civil rights violations. Columbus Police Chief Tom Quinlan issued a statement Thursday asking the public to suspend the verdict until a full investigation is completed. “We ask your questions. We ask for your cries for more information and further answers. We listen to your demands for justice. The hard reality is that often in police work, information and answers are inevitably slow. It’s not a secret interest – it’s for the good of justice.” Said. “But please understand- quick answers to complete answers cannot be prioritized,” he said. “Information that answers today’s immediate questions has the potential to compromise a fair decision tomorrow.” .
