Georgia Deputies Shoot Man After He Refused to Put Away Tablet Computer in Courtroom
Georgia deputies shot a man after he refused to put away a tablet computer inside a courtroom during a child support hearing Wednesday.
Clayton County sheriff’s deputies say they only shot Benarvis Johnson after tasering him, which had no effect on him.
They also say he ignored their orders to put away the tablet computer, which is why they had to drag him out of the courtroom and taser him.
A witness recorded deputies with tasers in their hands struggling with the 27-year-old man outside the courtroom, but did not capture the actual shooting or any of the tasering.
