Officer cleared in killing of 12-year-old

BY KENNETH HEARD ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE

A West Memphis police officer has been exonerated in the June shooting death of a 12-yearold boy, special prosecutors who investigated the case announced Tuesday at the Crittenden County Courthouse in Marion.

H.G. Foster of Conway said after he and special prosecutor John “Jack” McQuary of Benton held a lengthy investigation and determined that DeAuntae Farrow was carrying a replica of a Smith & Wesson semi-automatic pistol when he was shot, they found insufficient evidence to charge Sgt. Erik Sammis in the boy’s death. DeAuntae’s family has claimed that he was only carrying a bag of chips and a soda. Foster said in an interview Tuesday afternoon, however, that paramedics who tended to DeAuntae found the toy handgun underneath the boy’s body.
