US airman killed by Florida deputy | New details revealed by family

Where is the woman who led the police to the wrong door? She and that police officer need to be held accountable immediate 💯

First off, a black cop would not have done this. If a black cop had shot and killed a white Special Operation officer. His azz would have been locked up the first day. We would know what high school he went to and what street his mother live on.

I always pray for the day that this ends. We must treat each other better 😢 Those poor babies are breaking my heart 😢😢😢

As USAF veteran, my condolences to the Family of this American Airman, may the justice you seek, come to fruitian...And my Healing and peace, come back into your lives...

No amount of money can bring back this young man life. As a single mom of a black son my ❤️ is broken 💔

That woman that called the cops should go to jail

The person that call law enforcement and made false statement should be held accountable immediately........ Mr.ELJ.....

This is very very difficult to watch, I can’t swallow my lunch. 😭😭😭 I hear the mother crying. Lord bring that officer to justice!!! PLEASE!!! 🙏🏽

As a female army veteran, i’am heartbroken. My condolences to the entire family and the army family.

This is murder.

Every one that's involve should be held accountable.

I saw the video of the shooting, and it doesn't make sense that the cop was prepared to shoot someone for yelling and calling someone a b_ _ch! This needs to be investigated as a homicide!

Regardless of whether he was an Airman or not, nobody should be shot for having a gun in his own home and not posing a threat.

How dare this cop knock on an innocent young man's door and MURDER him. Unacceptable 😢

My heart is so broken for his family…. I cannot even begin to find the right words but if you see this I pray for God’s strength and comfort to carry you through this painful time. Much love in Christ, from OK.

The female who called for assistance and provided the incorrect information and obviously was not being harmed needs to be brought up on charges along with the officer who executed this young man. IMO

The right to bear arms doesn’t apply to black people. We can’t even protect ourselves within our own homes. Praying for this family

The tears are flowing. My heart literally broke. I lost my son, he was 18 years old.I feel your pain. My condolences. I hope justice is swift.

I agree that woman who led the police to the wrong door. She and that police officer need to be held accountable immediate for the Airman's death.

If there was a 911 call, the person who called should be identified. The leasing office person if employee or not is accountable for speaking on what she was not certain on other than what she had heard. She is fully accountable for the running of her mouth on an innocent person. The deputy who stated all was hearsay by a fourth party (whoever he meant) should also be held accountable. And, the deputy’s actions in heading toward an apartment without verification of a 911 call of where the call was from or on whom it was on was intentional negligence. He overused his authority and title thereby making the egregious decision to go to the apartment he was directed to by the leasing office female without verifying its call via dispatch first. He, with full and intentional malice, and going by what he was told by the leasing office female already had hate on his way toward the apartment intentionally and without thought executed the innocent victim who was in his own home with his own registered weapon; never pointed at the deputy; without his finger on the trigger; of no opposing threat to the deputy; with a calm demeanor; obeyed his order; knew not why the deputy was there before his demise; is executed in cold blood just because the deputy decided to do so way before he had even arrived at the door. The deputy’s demeanor as he knocks and stepping away from the door shows his mental thoughts of a possible weapon on the other side of the door. This was his thought. And, if he saw a gun, he was going to shoot. He shot not once for what would have been lie #1: Felt threatened, but he shot him six times. This amount of shots is intentional malice with hateful forethought. My condolences to the family. It is heartfelt. I do not know the family nor Mr. Fortson, but I felt the pain. There should be no administrative leave. That deputy should be in jail as should be the leasing office female and whoever called, if there was a 911 call at all. The deputy should go to jail for life. No amount of money will bring back this young man ever. 😢🙏🏼
