Dorothy Copp Elliott, a Maryland schoolteacher and the mother of Archie Elliott III reflects back to 1993 when Prince George’s County Police Officers Jason Leavitt and Wayne Cheney fatally shot her 24-year-old son 14 times during a traffic stop. At the time Elliott was killed, his hands were still cuffed behind his back as he sat in a patrol car. All officers involved were cleared of any wrongdoing. The case was re-examined in 2021.
In this ~21 minute episode we explore how policing in the ’90s was different without the use of body cameras and we take a look at the new developments of this case.
