An off-duty police officer was acquitted Monday in the road rage
shooting death of a Brooklyn motorist, outraging the victim’s family,
who called the standoff “murder, in cold blood.”
Wails of protest erupted inside Brooklyn Supreme Court after jurors
cleared Officer Wayne Isaacs of any criminal responsibility in the July
4, 2016 death of Delrawn Small, 37, who was shot three times after
approaching Isaacs' driver's side window in East New York.
After jurors deliberated three days on murder and manslaughter charges,
Isaacs, 38, walked away a free man as shocked relatives cursed him out
and called him a killer.
“This is a guy we need to get off the streets,” said Small's brother,
Victor Dempsey. “He cannot represent the NYPD. He cannot represent law
enforcement. He can't. He should have been held accountable today but
unfortunately he wasn't. Now I've got to stand with my family and look
at them in the eye and not know how to explain what just happened."
