The Hawk Eye reports that footage from a nearby home security camera and from Lt. Adam Schafer’s body cam, as well as Schaefer’s statement, have been made public.

They were made public by the attorney representing Jones’s mother in a wrongful death suit against the city and the police officers involved in the shooting which was filed in May of last year.
