Seattle police officer who struck and killed graduate student won’t face felony charges
nbcnews.com/news/us-news/seattle-police-officer-struck-killed-graduate-student-wont-face-felony-rcna140129
Quick Glance: Seattle Officer Escapes Felony Charges in Fatal Accident
- Prosecutors in Washington state will not file serious charges against a Seattle police officer who struck and killed an Indian graduate student.
- Officer Kevin Dave was driving 74 mph on a street with a 25 mph speed limit in a police SUV before hitting 23-year-old Jaahnavi Kandula on January 23, 2023, in a crosswalk.
- The King County prosecutor's office noted that Dave had his emergency lights on, pedestrians heard his siren, and Kandula seemed to try and cross the intersection as his vehicle approached.
- Although no serious charges will be filed, there is a possibility that city prosecutors could pursue lesser charges such as negligent driving.
