Accordingly, the deadline for release has been postponed to January 8, 2021. This extension was granted on December 10, 2020. COPA remains committed to transparency and the release of video and other materials as outlined within City policy. Upon authorization, COPA will facilitate the prompt release of all required materials.
This post was updated January 7, 2021. Defense attorney’s request for Court Order to withhold release has been denied.
