Officer charged with murder doesn t want man called victim

April 22, 2021 GMT HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) An Alabama police officer charged with murder in the shooting of a man during a mental health call doesn’t want prosecutors to refer to the dead person as a victim during the upcoming trial. An attorney for Huntsville police officer William Darby, 28, made the request in a motion filed Wednesday, WAAY-TV reported. The defense contended that allowing prosecutors to refer to Jeffrey Parker as a “victim” would inflame the jury and make it sound like the officer is guilty. Prosecutors did not immediately respond to the motion, and Circuit Judge Donna Pate issued no ruling.
