How they died
Deadly force
Joseph Walker, a detective with the New Jersey Prosecutor's Officer, was driving with family members in a minivan when he cut off Joseph Harvey Jr. and his passenger. Harvey allegedly responded by hurling racial epithets, throwing a soda can at the minivan and trying to run the Walkers off the road. After both vehicles came to a stop, Walker got out and identified himself as a police officer and Harvey advanced up Walker. Walker shot and killed Harvey. He was found not guilty of homicide.
