Retired police lieutenant charged in fatal shooting of library officer
The spokesman, Dustin Sternbeck, identified the retired lieutenant as Jesse Porter, 58, who left the force in November 2020. He lives in Northeast Washington.
Porter was being held Friday morning. It could not immediately be determined whether he had an attorney. Police said the Porter had been contracted by the library to provide training for some of its officers on the use of extendible batons. Police Chief Robert J. Contee III said it was unclear why a live firearm was involved in the training but that “it is not good practice to do that.”The library police officer, who was shot near the end of the training session, was pronounced dead at a hospital, police said.
