MARKSVILLE, La. (KLFY) – A judge has released body camera footage from the officer-involved shooting that left a 6-year-old boy dead and his father critically injured last year in Marksville.

The shooting happened around 9:30 p.m. on November 3, 2015.

The footage released today is from Marksville Police Officer Sgt. Kenneth Parnell, III.

Parnell is seen in the video raising his weapon towards the SUV that 6-year-old Jeremy Mardis and his father Christopher Few are in but did not fire his weapon.

At today’s hearing, Parnell told the court he did not discharge his gun because he did not fear for his life.

The state submitted the body camera video as evidence in the pretrial hearing Wednesday.

“We introduced physical evidence, we played the tape that the officer took that day. We put on photographs,” John Sinquefield said, prosecuting attorney.

“There’s no way, even if our conflict did inflict great bodily harm on these individuals, that’s not the same as the specific intent to kill, which the state has to prove,” Christopher Lacour said, Stafford’s attorney.

Mardis died at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds, his father, Few survived.

Forensic investigators found 18 bullet casings at the scene. 14 were fired from Derrick Stafford’s weapon and four were fired from Norris Greenhouse Jr.’s weapon.

The Associated Press reports, prosecutors showed the tape in court Wednesday to support their claim that one of the deputies, Derrick Stafford, had a pattern of using excessive force — including last November’s fatal shooting of 6-year-old Jeremy Mardis in Marksville.

Avoyelles Parish investigators initially said marshals were chasing Christopher Few because he was wanted on an outstanding warrant.

WAFB reports the Clerk of Court, the District Attorney’s Office, Marksville Police Department, and City Court said Few did not find any outstanding warrants. Col. Mike Edmonson, the head of the Louisiana State Police said so far, their investigation shows the same.

Defense attorneys for Stafford and Greenhouse Jr. argue the deputies acted in self-defense and claim Christopher Few used his car as a “deadly weapon” at the time of the shooting.

Judge William Bennett also ruled the two deputies will have separate trials.WARNING: GRAPHIC VIDEO BELOW
