A Florida appeals court overturned the conviction of an ex Miami cop who shot an unarmed autistic man and his caretaker in 2016.
Arnaldo Rios-Soto, who has severe developmental disabilities, ran away from his group home sat in the middle of the street to play with a toy car.
His caretaker, Charles Kinsey, laid down on the ground with his hands up, telling the officers they had no weapons. Jonathan Aledda was the only officer who fired a weapon, striking Kinsey.
Aledda testified the thought perceived Kinsey was in danger. The appeals court ruled that the lower court was wrong in not allowing information about Aledda’s hostage situation training to be brought up in court.
Aledda was convicted of negligence but acquitted of attempted manslaughter charges.
Whether Alledda will be retried in this case will be up to Florida State Attorney.
