A judge has reinstated all charges, including murder, against a former Philadelphia police officer Mark Dial in the shooting of Eddie Irizarry.
Irizarry, 27, was shot inside his car during a traffic stop on Aug. 14. Dial was charged with murder, as well as voluntary manslaughter, aggravated assault, possessing an instrument of crime, simple assault, reckless endangerment of another person and official oppression, stemming from the shooting.
Brian McMonagle, one of Dial's attorneys, told reporters the defense's next steps may include trying to move the case to a county "where law and order matters." When reached for comment, the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office said, "We will be trying this case in the courtroom, not in the media."
The footage shows Dial getting out of his cruiser and approaching Irizarry's car with his gun drawn. "I will f------ shoot you," he says, before firing into the front driver's seat where Irizarry was seated. Prior to shots being fired, an officer can be heard yelling at Irizarry to show his hands.The Philadelphia District Attorney's Office refiled the criminal complaint against Dial on all charges hours after Judge Wendy Pew dismissed the case on Sept. 26.
