Releasing the footage would affect the ongoing State Bureau of Investigation probe, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency said.
The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency on Friday reportedly denied the request by the family of Stephen Perkins to view the body cam footage from the night the Decatur man was fatally shot by police.
“Therefore, in accordance with state law, in the interest of protecting the constitutional rights of all involved, and in the interest of prioritizing a thorough law enforcement investigation of the recorded subject matter, ALEA respectfully declines to make the disclosure you have requested while the investigation remains pending.”
Lambert could not immediately reached by AL.com for comment or to verify that he received the letter.
