Aderrien
Murry‘s
shooting
was
a
subject
that
BOSSIP
dedicated
extensive
time
covering.
The
11-year-old
was
shot
by
an
Indianola,
Mississippi
police
officer
after
the
boy’s
mother
called
911
about
an
angry
boyfriend
who
was
terrorizing
their
home.
When

Sergeant
Greg
Capers
arrived
on
the
seen
and
entered
the
home,
weapon
drawn,
he
shot
Aderrien
in
the
chest
when
he
came
into
living
room.

Fortunately,
Murry
survived
despite
suffering
a
collapsed
lung,
lacerated
liver
and
fractured
ribs,
but
it
goes
without
saying
that
both
Aderrien
and
his
mother
are
deeply
traumatized
by
what
they
experienced
that
night.
Post
shooting,
Aderrien
has
given
several
interviews
expressing
how
his
mental
health
has
been
affected.
According
to

The
Independent,
the
body
camera
footage
of
that
night
has
been
begrudgingly
released
by
Mississippi
law
enforcement
officials
and
now
we
get
to
see
just
how
quickly
Sgt.
Capers
was
to
pull
the
trigger
on
his
service
weapon
while
aiming
at
the
4-foot-10-inch
child
holding
his
hands
up
in
the
air.

The
family
has
retained
the
legal
services
of
attorney
Carlos
Moore
and
filed
a
$5
million
civil
lawsuit
against
Capers,
the
city,
and
the
police
chief.

Warning:
The
following
footage
can
be
disturbing
to
watch.
It
is
not
graphic
and
the
video
is
paused
at
the
moment
the
shooting
occurs,
however,
please
take
stock
of
your
mental
health
before
pressing
play. 

Back
in
December
2023,
a
grand
jury
decided
that
Capers
didn’t
commit
any
criminal
infractions
and
declined
to
file
charges
against
him.
We
sincerely
hope
that
this
family
bankrupts
the
city
of
Indianola.
