Kim Potter, Ex-Officer Convicted of Killing Daunte Wright, Released from Prison

Kim Potter, the former police officer convicted of killing Daunte Wright during a traffic stop, has been released from a Minnesota correctional facility. Potter was convicted of first- and second-degree manslaughter and sentenced to 24 months in prison and a fine of $1,000. She was released early "out of an abundance of caution for the safety of Ms. Potter, DOC staff and the security of the correctional facility." Wright was shot by Potter during a scuffle with officers after being pulled over for an expired registration tab and a hanging air freshener in the rearview mirror.
