Bryan Richardson Cause Of Death
Video released by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department shows bystanders gathered around Jimenez, trying to help the dying man. A visibly distraught Richardson stood outside the crowd of bystanders surrounding Jimenez. He had a gun next to him. An officer, noticing an armed Richardson, draws his service weapon and points it at him. Meanwhile, his partner approaches Richardson to take the gun from him.
Richardson does not appear violent in the video and even hands the gun over to the police. His other arm is seen extended towards the deputy as if begging him not to shoot. However, the officer ended up shooting Richardson eight times, killing him. Both brothers were rushed to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead.
The sheriff’s office claimed that both brothers had been involved in an “altercation” with another man. The man was reportedly hospitalized but survived the incident. According to agents, Jimenez and the third man first began shooting at each other, leaving Jimenez wounded and dying in the parking lot. The deputy and his female partner arrived at the scene and found that Jiménez was already being attended by a civilian.
Officers became aware of Richardson’s presence after one of the bystanders yelled “He’s got a gun!” The man also claimed that Richarson is “targeting people.” Then followed the murder of Richardson at the hands of the deputy, despite the fact that he had already been disarmed.
Due to Marsy’s Law, the sheriff’s office did not release any information about the officer who killed Richardson. Marsy’s Law, which was implemented in 2018, ensures that crime victims have the same constitutional rights at the same level as those charged with crimes. It was only confirmed that the officer has been with the sheriff’s office since 2018. He is now the subject of an internal police investigation and has been placed on temporary paid administrative leave, the Daily Mail reported.
Orange Country Sheriff John Mina released a statement after the footage was released. “The officers ordered that man, later identified as Bryan Richardson, to drop the weapon,” Mina said. “When he did not comply, a deputy fired his gun.”
Meanwhile, the family of the deceased men retained an attorney, Mark NeJame, who said after the video’s release: “We are grateful for the transparency of the Orange County Sheriff in releasing the body camera footage to the public. We respect that further camera footage of the first officer on scene may not yet be released as the matter is under investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.”
NeJame claimed that the third man involved in the shooting was a “known threat and danger” to the residents of the Heritage Hotel. He said Richardson was only holding his gun to provide protection for the first officer on the scene, as well as the former EMT who was assisting his brother, since the third man was still present in the area. He also claimed that the first officer on the scene, the officer’s partner, knew Richardson was armed and gave him permission to do the same.
