TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - A Superior Court judge in Pima County has dismissed the manslaughter charge against a former Tucson police officer who killed a shoplifting suspect.

Last week a grand jury refused to re-indict Ryan Remington for Richards’ death.

The second grand jury did not indict and Tuesday morning, Jan. 17, a judge dismissed the manslaughter charge without prejudice, meaning it can be re-filed.
