  "account": "According to prosecutors, the investigation into the police killing of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley in Senatobia, Mississippi, concluded that the use of force by the officer was justified. The Attorney General's Office announced this decision on Monday, stating that the toddler posed no threat and deserved protection despite his death. However, the family of Kohen Wiley maintains that they have not received any communication from state authorities regarding the investigation. Kohen's grandmother, Veronica Roberson, reported that she only learned of the attorney general's decision through a Facebook post and that no one had reached out to them. Furthermore, the Mississippi Legislative Black Caucus expressed outrage over the decision, stating that Kohen Wiley deserved more than just a conclusion and demanded further answers about the circumstances surrounding his death.",
  "summary": "Mississippi has yet to release any support for its claim that a “thorough and impartial” review showed the shooting was “justified.” The post Kohen Wiley’s Family Say They Never Heard From Investigators Who Concluded Cops Did No Wrong appeared first on The Intercept .",
