A North Carolina judge ruled on April 28 against the immediate public release of body camera footage in the officer-involved shooting death of Andrew Brown Jr.

Brown’s family attorneys, Black Lives Matter activists, and a coalition of media outlets have demanded the release of five body camera videos that purport to show deputies fatally shooting Brown while he was behind the wheel of his vehicle last week.
