Ex-Columbus Officer Adam Coy Convicted in Shooting of Unarmed Black Man

Former Columbus police officer Adam Coy was found guilty of murder in the 2020 shooting of Andre Hill, a Black man holding a cellphone and keys. Coy, who is White, claimed he mistook the keys for a gun. The incident led to Coy's firing, a $10 million settlement with Hill's family, and the passing of "Andre's Law" requiring officers to provide immediate medical aid. Coy faces at least 15 years in prison, with sentencing set for November 25. The case has sparked discussions on police accountability and racial justice.
