ROCHESTER, N.Y. — A grand jury has chosen not to criminally charge Rochester police officers whose restraint of Daniel Prude may have caused his death, the state attorney general announced Tuesday.

"I know that the Prude family, the Rochester community and communities across the country will rightfully be disappointed by this outcome," New York Attorney General Letitia James said in announcing the grand jury's decision. "My office presented an extensive case, and we sought a different outcome than the one the grand jury handed us today."

She added, "The criminal justice system has frustrated efforts to hold law enforcement officers accountable for the unjustified killing of unarmed African Americans. What binds these cases is a tragic loss of life in circumstances in which the death could have been avoided." 

James promised a "comprehensive report" would be released to the media. The report would include a "minute-by-minute account" of the events of March 22 and 23.
