Statement summary
Armand and co-counsel E. Paige White said in a joint statement to WUSA9 that the short clip MPD released supports their position that Brown was nearly killed by his own government for no reason.
“Though MPD only released a short clip of its officer's BWC footage, it underscores what attorneys for Mr. Brown asserted since the shooting—he was nearly killed by his own government for no reason.”

Why we used this label
The statement expressly calls the shooting unjustified.
HSI agent Benedict Bebber fired into Phillip Brown's vehicle during a D.C. traffic stop. DHS says Brown drove at officers; Brown's lawyers dispute that account. Released video captures the gunfire but not the trigger pull.
