Sacramento Police Officers Who Killed Stephon Clark Identified

They were identified by the law firm when uncensored copies of Sacramento police bodycam footage were initially received to view with Clark's family. In that footage the officers names were visible on their uniforms. Subsequent versions of the bodycam footage released to the public were censored by police by blurring the names out.

Burris' law office told the media they decided to release the names of the officers because they believed it was in the public interest.

"When we have that information and the public doesn't, we think its important to get that out," a representative of the firm told the Sacramento Bee.
