“A lawyer says body camera video shows the father of a 6-year-old autistic boy who was shot to death in his car had his hands in the air and did not pose a threat before police opened fire last week. Mark Jeansonne is the attorney for Chris Few, who was seriously woundedwhen local marshals in the town of Marksville opened fire. His 6-year-old, Jeremy Mardis, was strapped into his seatbelt in the front passenger seat. Jeansonne said ‘this was not a threatening situation for the police.’ Jeansonne spoke with The Associated Press after a closed hearing for the two marshals, now jailed on $1 million bond.”
