WGN9: Family of Elk Grove Village man shot, killed by police seek answers

“We believe the Elk Grove Village Police Department was familiar with Jack Murray and knew he occasionally called them for help when he was in physical or emotional distress. We believe that may have been what happened on Friday, December 1.  Our civil investigation has begun, and we are focusing on officers’ treatment of a known emotionally distressed person and their use of de-escalation tactics to preserve Jack’s life and get him the assistance he needed.  We call for transparency by Elk Grove Police and the release of the 9-1-1 call, all body and dash cam footage from this event and from all prior encounters with this young man. His family is deeply grieving and deserves answers on exactly what happened Friday afternoon,” said Antonio M. Romanucci, Founding Partner, Romanucci & Blandin.
