Trial & Court Proceedings

In March 2006, during an attempt to arrest fugitive Jason Anderson at the Homer airport, Sgt. David Shealy, along with other officers, fired shots into Anderson’s vehicle, knowing that his two young children were inside. This action resulted in the severe injury of Anderson’s 2-year-old son, J.A., who was shot through the head, leading to permanent disabilities. The incident led to a $3.5 million settlement awarded to the child and his mother in July 2011. The officers’ actions were criticized for escalating the situation and endangering the children, despite prior warnings about the risks involved in arresting Anderson with his children present.
