On Dec. 20, Fairfax County Police released security camera footage showing the sequence of events that led up to and immediately followed Master Deputy Sheriff Patrick McPartlin shooting Yovani Amaya Gomez at the bus depot outside Inova Fairfax Hospital on Aug. 15, 2016.
The previous Friday, Dec. 16, Commonwealth's Attorney Ray Morrogh announced his decision that McPartlin was not criminally liable in the shooting and that it was a "justified homicide."
David Smith, commander of Fairfax County Police Department major crimes division, broke down the security camera footage of events leading up to and following Yovani Amaya Gomez (pictured on screen holding a sign post he used to attack a security guard and Sheriff’s deputy) being shot by Master Deputy Sheriff Patrick McPartlin.
A report on Morrogh's decision is available online here (link: http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/news/2016/dec/20/fairfax-county-sheriffs-deputy-cleared-fatal-shoot/).
