* (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) * Newfane, Vermont — On June 17, 2022, around 2:15 a.m. a homeowner called Vermont State Police to report that a guest in his home was acting irrationally and causing damage to the residence. When Vermont State Police Sgt. Ryan Wood, 36, and Tpr. Zachary Trocki, 29, responded, they found 61-year-old Marshall Dean on the roof of the house. The troopers try to communicate with Dean for about two minutes, concerned about what they believe is a saw in Dean’s hand. Less than two minutes after responding to the scene, Trooper Trocki shot Marshall Todd Dean with a Super-Sock bean bag projectile fired from a Remington 12 gauge shotgun from a distance of approximately 77.8 feet. Soon after being struck, Dean falls about 15 feet to the ground. He was transported by ambulance to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital and subsequently transferred to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, New Hampshire, for treatment of significant injuries. Attorney General Cleak concluded the use of force was not justified because Dean posed no immediate danger to anyone. On May 2023, the Vermont Attorney General’s Office filed charges against the troopers for both reckless endangerment and simple assault, but Windham County Superior Court Judge Katherine Hayes dismissed those charges, saying there wasn’t evidence that the bean bag caused the man to fall off the roof. Both troopers pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charges. Prosecutors with the Attorney General’s Office indicated they were considering refiling the assault charges, and that they wanted to submit video evidence to support their case. The case against Wood and Trocki is the first time Attorney General Clark has filed criminal charges against law enforcement officers. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - 'General X' - 'jadeennff' - Armando Renteria - Scott Moody - James Pringle - 'AccuShoot.com' - 'Savage Training Group' - Brandi Summers - Meighan Garrick - Michele Duckson - 'BoJassim' - 'Sopaul' - 'Tavia S' - Michael Mortimer - Lisa Overly - Connor Davies - Paul Rohrbaugh - Nash Martin - 'Necko' - Gerardo Flores - Richard Vannieuwenhuyse - 'DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse' - 'Roman1983' - Anthony Eufemio - 'Donkbot' - Gage Kissinger - Alex F - Eian Smith - 'HelloDarknessMyOldFriend' - 'coco Coco' - 'The Chocolate Thief' - Joe ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Support us at BuyMeACoffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/PoliceActivity Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PoliceActivity Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Police_Activity 🛍️ Check out our Amazon store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/PoliceActivity 🛍️ Disclosure: Please note that we will receive a small commission from purchases made through our Amazon store.
