Maurica Manyan, 25, was killed by a retired D.C. police lieutenant who was supposed to be training her in what witnesses described as a joke gone wrong.
“It’s tragic we have to be here, but I had to come support my family,” said her brother, Radcliffe Manyan, voice shaking. “I can’t really talk too much.”
Porter walked out of the photo line, picked up his handgun, and shot her in the chest, according to the documents. He has been charged with involuntary manslaughter.Manyan’s attorneys and family blamed District officials for allowing Porter into the library with a loaded gun, which they said was not necessary for the training. They said they are investigating which policies and procedures were violated and by whom.
“We want to make it very clear that we are taking the position that this is not an accident,” said Chelsea Lewis, an attorney representing the family.
