A former police officer who fatally tasered a 95-year-old aged-care resident while on duty will remain free after a failed legal bid to jail him.

Then-senior constable Kristian James Samuel White, 35, fired his Taser at Clare Nowland after being called to Yallambee Lodge nursing home at Cooma in southern NSW on May 17, 2023.
