(CLEVELAND) — The mother of Tamir Rice, the Black 12-year-old Cleveland boy shot to death by a white cop in 2014, is asking the Ohio Supreme Court to reject an attempt by the officer to get his job back.
An attorney for Samaria Rice filed an amicus brief on Monday, asking the state Supreme Court to uphold an appellate court’s ruling this year that former police officer Timothy Loehmann should not be reinstated as a Cleveland police officer after lawyers for the Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association argued he was wrongfully terminated.
Loehmann was fired in May 2017 — but not for shooting Tamir Rice. He lost his job when police department officials learned he lied on his application to become a Cleveland police officer, failing to disclose he had been fired from another Ohio police department.
