Pendleton police Lt. Charles Byram reported officers responded to a home on the 600 block of Southeast Eighth Street on a report of an accidental, self-inflicted gun- shot wound that resulted in a minor injury. The investigation revealed the home- owner armed herself with her .357 revolver after hearing what she believed to be a prowler in her backyard. She checked out- side, found no one on her property and returned to the house. There, she tried to un-cock the hammer to render the gun safe but fired off a shot. The round grazed a finger on her left hand, according to Byram, and medics treated the wound at the scene. Byram also reported Pendleton police are not recommending criminal charges as a result of the accident.

Closings over in trial of white cop who killed black teen By RAMESH SANTANAM Associated Press PITTSBURGH — A jury was set to begin delib- erating Friday in the homi- cide trial of a white former police officer charged with killing an unarmed black teenager outside Pittsburgh. Former East Pittsburgh Police Officer Michael Ros- feld acted as “judge, jury and executioner” when he gunned down 17-year-old Antwon Rose II last sum- mer, Assistant District Attorney Jonathan Fodi said in his closing argument. The defense has argued the officer felt threatened and was following his training when he fired. Rosfeld, 30, shot Rose in the back, arm and side of the face after pulling over an unlicensed taxi that had been used in a drive-by shooting. Rosfeld ordered the driver to the ground, but Rose and another passen- ger got out and began run- AP Photo/Matt Rourke Former East Pittsburgh police officer Michael Rosfeld. ning away. Jurors saw video of the fatal confrontation, which showed Rose falling to the ground after being hit. Rosfeld could have waited for backup or given chase, Fodi said, adding that teenagers sometimes run from police. “Is it fool- ish? Yes. Does it deserve death? No. Is it reasonable? Absolutely not,” Fodi said. “There was no need to use deadly force.” Rosfeld told the jury he thought Rose or the other suspect had a gun. The defense said the shooting was justified because Ros- feld believed he was in dan- ger and couldn’t wait for other officers to get there. “He’s a sitting duck,” defense attorney Patrick Thomassey told jurors in his closing, asking them to consider “the standard of what a reasonable police officer would do under the circumstances.” Prosecutors charged Ros- feld with an open count of homicide, meaning the jury can convict him of murder or manslaughter. The defense asked Judge Alexander Bicket to acquit Rosfeld of all charges, but the judge declined. “We believe the jury has enough information to arrive at the right con- clusion: that Antwon Rose was murdered,” the fami- ly’s attorney, S. Lee Merritt, told The Associated Press in a courthouse hallway. Mer- ritt said “it’s pretty obvi- ous” Rose was not a threat to Rosfeld. Rose had been riding in the front seat of the cab when another occupant, Zaijuan Hester, in the back, rolled down a window and shot at two men on the street, hitting one in the abdomen. A few minutes later, Rosfeld spotted their car, which had Ex-teacher gets prison for repeated sexual abuse of student PORTLAND (AP) — A former Tigard High School teacher and coach admit- ted to repeatedly sexually abusing a student and was sentenced to two years in prison. The Oregonian/Oregon- Live reports 41-year-old Marcus D. Jolley pleaded guilty in Washington County Circuit Court to sec- ond-degree sexual abuse and was sentenced Thursday. He admitted to sexual contact with a student near the high school and in a church parking lot between July 2005 and December 2005. Additional allegations of abuse of that student and a second girl in 2016 were dismissed as part of a plea agreement. A judge also ordered Jol- ley to serve five years of post-prison supervision, register as a sex offender and have no contact with schools or children. Court documents say an investigation began in 2017 after a high school senior reported abuse by Jolley the previous summer. its rear windshield shot out, and pulled it over. Hester, 18, pleaded guilty last week to aggravated assault and firearms viola- tions. Hester told a judge that he, not Rose, did the shooting. At the beginning of the trial’s fourth day Friday, a defense expert, retired Penn- sylvania State Police Trooper Clifford W. Jobe Jr., returned to the stand and repeated his belief that Rosfeld followed proper procedure when he shot Rose. Under cross-examination, Jobe agreed with Fodi that a police officer can lie, vio- late the law or be unreason- able. He also agreed with the prosecutor that in some cir- cumstances, it is reasonable to refrain from shooting or to disengage from a situation.
