A grand jury in New York state on Feb. 23 voted against indicting police officers on charges related to the March 2020 death of Daniel Prude.
Prude, 41, was pronounced dead a week after his arrest on March 23, 2020. His relatives had called the police for help when he was suffering a mental episode. Officers found him running naked in the street. He initially complied when officers asked him to put his hands behind his back to be handcuffed. Later, Prude sat up and began spitting at the officers while saying he had contracted the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, also known as the novel coronavirus.
