Mom seeks ranger's lost bodycam footage of son's death

摘要

Park ranger Robert Mitchell told investigators he had an equipment malfunction when he shot and killed 25-year-old Charles "Gage" Lorentz during a scuffle at Carlsbad Caverns National Park in New Mexico on March 21: His body camera suddenly went dark for 26 seconds.When the recording resumed, footage showed Lorentz - a Texas oil field worker who was stopped for driving erratically on a dirt road - motionless on the ground. Mitchell can be seen telling officers that he "definitely got him" after he fired twice at Lorentz - first in the right thigh, then a fatal shot to the chest at close range.
