Attorneys have released 911 dispatch audio tapes that suggest mistakes were made leading up to the police shooting of an 11-year-old boy in Mississippi. Last week, body camera footage was released showing the moments before Aderrien Murry was shot in his home after calling the police for help. The boy suffered serious injuries, including a collapsed lung and fractured ribs. His family is suing the city where the incident occurred. Although the officer involved has been cleared of criminal conduct and reinstated, the newly released 911 recordings raise questions about whether he knew there was a child in the house. The incident occurred during a domestic disturbance call, and the boy's mother had asked him to call for help. The family argues that the shooting was not justified. The city has not commented on the video or audio releases. The Murry family is currently suing for $5 million and calling for the firing of the officer involved and the police chief, alleging gross negligence and reckless disregard.
