The New Hampshire Attorney General's office concluded that police officers were legally justified in the fatal shooting of Heath Thompson, who fired at them during a response to a domestic violence call on January 21. The investigation reviewed 43 video recordings and found that Thompson had threatened family members and was armed when officers arrived. In Mississippi, Attorney General Lynn Fitch announced that the use of force was justified in four fatal shootings by law enforcement officers in 2023, including a May incident involving four Meridian Police officers who shot a barricaded suspect threatening staff at an assisted living facility. Additional incidents included shootings in response to domestic disturbances and armed threats, all investigated by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation. No charges will be filed against the officers involved in either state, affirming the legality of their actions. These findings reflect ongoing scrutiny regarding police use of force and the complexities surrounding such incidents.
