The U.S. Department of Justice launched its own investigation days after the shooting. The agency announced Friday that a team of prosecutors from its Civil Rights Division and the U.S. attorney´s office in Milwaukee reviewed police reports, witness statements, dispatch logs and videos of the incident, and determined there wasn´t enough evidence to prove Sheskey used excessive force or violated Blake´s federal rights.
“Accordingly, the review of this incident has been closed without a federal prosecution,” the Justice Department said in a news release.
