The Shasta County District Attorney’s Office is involved in the investigation and review of all officer involved shooting incidents resulting in injury or death, as well as law enforcement use of force resulting in the death of individuals while in law enforcement custody.
The DA’s role is to independently review the facts and circumstances of the incident in a fair and objective manner. Our goal is to ensure that justice is done, protecting the interests of the community, the involved officers, the persons injured or killed, and their families.
