Police Officer Fired for Excessive Force Fatally Shoots Exonerated Man

The Georgia deputy who fatally shot Leonard Cure, a black man who had served over 16 years in prison on a wrongful conviction, was previously fired from another police department for excessive use of force. Deputy Buck Aldridge, who had faced disciplinary issues in the past, tased and shot Cure during a violent struggle after a traffic stop. Cure's mother is seeking justice for her son, who had recently been exonerated and suffered psychological harm from his years behind bars. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump believes Cure's wrongful conviction affected him psychologically, and footage of the incident raises questions about the deputy's use of force.
