Fired Ohio officer accused of killing Andre Hill pleads not guilty to new charge
CBSN
The fired Ohio police officer accused of killing Andre Hill pleaded not guilty Wednesday to an additional criminal charge on the same day that prosecutors dropped two misdemeanor charges of dereliction of duty.
Adam Coy, a former Columbus police officer who is white, was indicted in February on murder, felonious assault and dereliction of duty-for failing to turn on his body camera-in the death of Hill, a 47-year-old Black man. Columbus officials cited incompetence and "gross neglect of duty" when the officer was fired less than a week after the Dec. 22 shooting. Coy was arraigned Wednesday after a grand jury last week added a criminal charge of reckless homicide against him for the fatal shooting of Hill. Coy remains free on bond.Child care in the U.S. today can cost more than families pay for rent, a mortgage or college tuition
