Charlotte Police Officers are bracing for more protests after violent demonstrations last night. Those protests erupted after police shot and killed a man. Charlottes police chief said officers at an apartment complex saw someone else keith scott get out of a vehicle with a gun then get back inside. Thats when officers said they felt threatened. As the officers continued to yell at him to drop it. He stepped out, posing a threat to the officers, and officer Brentley Vinson subsequently fired his weapon, striking the subject. Scotts family members say scott was sitting in his car reading a book. This comes after another controvesial shooting. Less than a week ago in tulsa, oklahoma. A Tulsa Police Officer shot Terence Crutcher after his vehicle broke down friday. Her lawyer says crutcher was disobeying Police Commands while reaching into his pocket and into the window of his suv. The officers responded with force killing the 40year old father of four. Its time for everybody to justice is served. Regardless if the window is up or down. This is clearly a case of excessive force. Dozens of protesters are calling for the immediate arrest of the officer. Who has been on paid leave since the shooting. These two shootings join other similar incidents across the country that prompted the black lives matter movement. Here in las vegas a clark county public defender sparked a protest in the courtroom when she refused to remove a small black lives matter pin. Fox 5s Kathleen Jacob spoke to her today and joins us live at the Public Defenders Office guys this is a very touchy subject. The attorney i spoke with tells me. Ultimately. The judge does have the right make rules in his courtroom when it comes to things he may think are going to disturb proceedings. But does wearing a small black leppel really do that . Court proceedings from yesterday. You can see public defender erika ballou and judge Douglas Herndon going back and forth. Now ballou had a group of attorneys there supporting her. Theyre also wearing the small black pin. They judge ordered her to either take off the pin. Or remove herself from her clients case. At that. Her supporters insisted she had a First Amendment right to demonstrate her opinion. My initial reaction was theres something wrong with the judge asking her to take that off. However, in thinking about it, first of all the judge has an absolute right and maintain decorum in the courtroom. Now i dont agree that this is disruptive, but im not the judge. So if the judge has a blanket policy of no statements in the courtroom, it might be defensible. Randazza went on to say that he has seen Police Officers wear the black band in court for officers killed. And other political pins or statements. So if a judge is going to have a policy, it should be a blanket. He just thinks it would have been better for her handled this outside of the courtroom with the judge. I also reached out to the judge and clark county courts,, they gave me a statement saying their judges are committed to upholding the constitution and laws. Including the First Amendment. But whether or not that speech is protected. A judge has an obligation to ensure that his or her courtroom establishes an impartial forum where disputes are resolved through rule of law and presentation of admissible evidence. Free from extranuous influence. Of course well keep following up on this. The judge did move the hearing to tomorrow. So well see what happens there. Reporting live. Kathleen jacob. Fox5news. Local.
