Ex-officer pleads guilty of manslaughter; Family blows up deal
The mother of a black man who was fatally shot and killed by a white former Nashville official sobbed, screamed and knocked over a lectern in the courtroom on Friday when she pleaded with a judge not to accept a plea deal that she says he was met secretly without her knowledge, a chaotic scene that briefly delayed the hearing before the judge accepted the agreement. Former officer Andrew Delke pleaded guilty to manslaughter over the death of Daniel Hambrick, 25, under an agreement with the prosecutor in 2018. Delke is serving a three-year prison sentence.
