“The family of a man shot and killed by a Phoenix police officer is suing the cop’s former partner alleging he failed to stop the officer from using excessive force. During the trial, Chrisman’s partner, Sergio Virgillo, testified for Rodriguez’s family saying he saw no threat justifying the use of deadly force. But despite his testimony, Rodriguez’s family is suing Virgillo. The suit claims, ‘Officer Virgillo has an opportunity to intervene and stop Officer Chrisman from using excessive force against Daniel and failed to do so.’ The family says Officer Virgillo knew that Chrisman was going to shoot Rodriguez sooner or later and he turned away to ‘get out of the danger zone.'”
