Prosecutors in Richmond, Va., say investigators do not have evidence of a possible plot targeting a specific amphitheater, despite what police claimed.
But since then, the picture of what happened has grown increasingly muddled.Richmond’s Commonwealth Attorney Colette McEachin said in an interview Thursday that her office had no evidence that the specific target of the alleged plot was the Dogwood Dell amphitheater, as Richmond’s police chief has asserted. She said a tipster who alerted police about the potential mass shooting only told them the target was a “large event.
“As confirmed today, there is evidence that RPD stopped a mass shooting from happening in the city on July 4,” the statement read. “Our investigation led us to conclude that Dogwood Dell was the intended target.” The controversy over the conflicting accounts flared after Richmond General District Judge David Hicks asked one of McEachin’s deputies at a Wednesday court hearing about the location that police had claimed was a target.two of his sons had been at the Dogwood Dell on July Fourth, so he might have to recuse himself from the case.
