OK...I'm just now learning about the Darlie Routier case. I've yet to form an opinion, but I'm reading and listening. Although this shooting happened some time ago, It IS interesting and as a sleuther, I want to know ALL the facts surrounding Darlie Routier. (I've listed the source, as required). What do you sleuthers think of this?

JUDGE SAYS HILL CAN BE SUED IN DAVIS DEATH
FORT WORTH - A federal judge has again ruled that a former North Richland Hills police officer who shot and killed the son of true-crime author Barbara Davis in a 1999 drug raid can be sued over claims he used excessive force.
U.S. District Judge Terry Means also dismissed all claims against Police Chief Tom Shockley and Sgt. Andy Wallace except for allegations that they failed to supervise former officer Allen Hill.
The city faces two consolidated wrongful-death lawsuits in connection with the death of 25-year-old Troy Davis: one by the Davis estate and another brought by Barbara Davis.
In the ruling handed down Sept. 30, Means also granted former SWAT team leader Greg Crane and officer Curtis Westbrook full immunity from the lawsuits.
Hill shot and killed Troy Davis during a SWAT team no-knock drug raid at the Davis house on Dec. 15, 1999.
A Tarrant County grand jury declined to indict Hill.
