A Colorado jury has found Aurora police officer Nathan Woodyard not guilty of manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide in the 2019 death of Elijah McClain. Randy Roedema was convicted of criminally negligent homicide and third-degree assault, while Jason Rosenblatt was acquitted of reckless manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide and assault. The verdict is seen as a major setback for those calling for justice for McClain and his family, and is likely to reignite the debate over police reform and accountability.
