KWGS News

 

Public costs connected to the case involving an ex-reserve deputy who fatally shot an unarmed man has reached over $334,000. The Tulsa World reports that the costs have reached $334,160 following the settlement of a fired major's tort claim against Tulsa County. Former Sheriff Stanley Glanz fired Maj. Shannon Clark after Robert Bates fatally shot Eric Harris in April 2015. Bates was convicted of second-degree manslaughter and sentenced in May to four years in prison.
