This case highlights a tragic and senseless act of violence, with the death of Officer Michael Chandler underscoring the dangers law enforcement officers face while responding to routine calls.
The conviction of Michael Donivan White to 100 years in federal prison serves as a reminder of the seriousness of taking a life in such circumstances, but as Acting U.S. Attorney Zachary T. Lee noted, no sentence can ever replace the loss of Officer Chandler.
The entire incident, from the moments leading up to the shooting to White’s attempt to flee, reflects the severity of the crime and the devastating impact it has on the community and those who knew Officer Chandler.
