South Bend Mayor James Mueller received a responsefrom Special Prosecutor Ric Hertel on his request for more information from the investigation into the shooting death of Eric Logan.
Logan was shot and killed by a white South Bend police officer last June. The officer’s body camera was not turned on at the time of the incident.
Mayor Mueller sent aletter to Hertel on March 13th requesting more information and evidence after many South Bend residents were not satisfied with the findings.
In Hertel’s response letter, he declined to provide more information.
In a press release, Mueller said “Our community deserves to have these answers to our questions about what happened the night of Eric Logan’s death.”
The Logan family filed a civil lawsuit against the City in federal court that is ongoing. A criminal case against former officer Ryan O’Neill unrelated to Eric Logan’s death is pending in state court.
