Casey Gordon Porter

Deadly force

A snowplow operator had called in a suspicious other at the pullout off the Sterling Highway. Osborn and another trooper, Joseph Whittom, responded. A trooper investigation found that Casey Porter, who was disabled and used a cane to walk, didn't follow Osborn's orders to get out of his car. Osborn pepper-sprayed him, then, seconds later as Porter's car moved forward, fired five shots, killing the man, the trooper investigation found.
