According to an amended complaint filed Nov. 17 in the Northern District of Texas, “Attia’s car / A / K / A Attia Jefferson died prematurely during and during employment.”
When asked for comment, Aaron Dean’s criminal case attorney told CNN, “We’re currently under grandfathering in a criminal case, so I have no comment.”
Jefferson was playing a video game with his nephew at 2 a.m. on October 28, 2019, when Aaron Dean and other officers arrived at his home.
Anxious neighbor called the Normansy police number after the front door of the house opened late. As officers walked around the home in the dark, Jefferson heard a noise in the back porch, pulled a gun from his purse and pointed it at the window, police said.
Dean said, “Put your hands up! Show me your hands!” She killed him before firing from the window. Body camera footage did not show that either officer identified himself as a policeman.
According to the complaint, Atiya was at home “not violating any state law and her shooting was without provocation or excuse.”
The complaint alleges the city and the former officer alleged that “Attiana’s car / a / k / a is intentionally indifferent to prevent damage by providing systematic training and supervision to Attiana’s Jefferson, Attiana’s car / A / K / A Attiana car Jefferson’s support provided constitutional rights and urgently needed medical care. ”
Read the complaint, “Defendants high-handedly ignored the rights of others and their behavior in the circumstances was extreme and unreasonable.”
Fort Worth police also said the gag order was enforced and they were “unable to comment on the incident.”
The city of Fort Worth did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment.
