【美国日记】21.05.12 美国警察：人照杀，钱照领！

这就是美国！

阿拉巴马州亨茨维尔市的一名警察因在2018年致命射击一名男子而被判谋杀罪名成立，但已被放假，但将继续获得薪酬。

28岁的威廉·“本”·达比（William“ Ben” Darby）周五因谋杀杰弗里·帕克（Jeffrey Parker）被定罪，杰弗里·帕克（Jeffrey Parker）用枪指着头部，威胁要自杀。

达比（Darby）周五以100,000美元的保释金获释，并在星期一被休带薪行政假等待判决。

A Huntsville, Ala., police officer found guilty of murder for fatally shooting a man in 2018 has been placed on leave but will continue to be paid, according to the city.

William “Ben” Darby, 28, was convicted Friday for the murder of Jeffrey Parker, who had a gun to his own head and was threatening suicide.

Darby was released on $100,000 bail Friday and was placed on paid administrative leave Monday while he awaits sentencing.

亨斯维尔市女发言人露西·德布蒂（Lucy DeButy）告诉AL.com：“由于达比（Darby）的定罪，他不能继续担任警官。” “这是正常的过程，直到根据汉斯维尔市的人事政策和程序完成正式程序为止。”

28岁的达比（Darby）在对第一个到达现场的警员Genisha Pegues大喊“把你的枪对着他”后，在2018年4月3日入屋11秒钟内对帕克致命射击了帕克的脸部。帕克打了911电话，声称他有武器并要自杀，他用枪指着自己的头。

Darby, 28, fatally shot Parker in the face within 11 seconds of entering his house on April 3, 2018, after yelling at the first responding officer, Genisha Pegues, to “point your f--king gun at him.” Parker had called 911, claiming he was armed and suicidal, and was pointing a gun at his own head.

麦迪逊县首席审判检察官蒂姆·甘恩（Tim Gann）对陪审团说：“一个无辜的人被谋杀了。” “他报警求助，但他等来了本·达比。”

达比面临20年至终身监禁。
