MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The attorney representing Memphis Police Officer Connor Schilling said his client does not intend to appeal the court’s decision that the TBI files be released immediately.
On Tuesday, WREG reported the court handed down a decision saying the people had a right to know the contents of that file.
The judge ordered the documents to be released immediately.
However, the court set a December 15 deadline for notice of appeals and delayed release of the files until then.
It’s unclear when the documents will be released on the District Attorney’s website.
A grand jury chose not to indict Memphis police officer Connor Schilling for shooting and killing Stewart July 17, 2015 during a traffic stop.
The driver was allowed to leave, but Stewart was held because he had two active warrants.
Iowa City Police charged Stewart with two counts of second-degree sexual abuse.
Police in Illinois have a warrant for Stewart for juvenile delinquency.
Schilling said Stewart, who was not handcuffed, attacked him when he opened his patrol car door.
Police say Stewart grabbed Schilling’s handcuffs and began beating the officer with them.
