The police officer who shot Jacob Blake in Wisconsin and left him paralyzed last summer has returned to work, the Kenosha Police Department announced Tuesday, saying "he acted within the law."
In a statement, Kenosha police chief Daniel Miskinis said officer Rusten Sheskey returned from administrative leave on March 31. He said Sheskey will also not face any punishment, citing internal and external probes of his actions in the shooting. Sheskey is White and Blake is Black. "Officer Sheskey was not charged with any wrong doing," he said. "He acted within the law and was consistent with training... Officer Sheskey was found to have been acting within policy and will not be subjected to discipline."More Related News
