A University of Cincinnati police officer who shot dead a motorist after pulling him over for a missing front license plate has been indicted on murder.
Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters said Ray Tensing “purposely killed” 43-year-old Samuel DuBose, a black man who was unarmed at the time of the incident. Tensing “should never have been a police officer,” Deters added.
The grand jury indicted Tensing on a charge of murder in the case, and Deter sad he would be seeking “life in prison” for Tensing. The 25-year-old officer later turned himself in.
The indictment came as authorities also released a video depicting the incident on July 19, in which Tensing is seen shooting DuBose seconds after DuBose’s car rolled slightly forward.
