Lafayette, IN, October 22, 2026 —
Attorney Ben Crump and the family of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley are holding a media conference after viewing footage of the shooting that killed the child in Senatobia, Mississippi. The incident involved a police officer firing into a car, according to the available account.
The state’s Attorney General’s office previously ruled that the officers’ actions were justified. The summary of the case does not provide the date of the shooting, the circumstances leading up to it, or the reasoning behind the office’s decision.
The media conference follows the family’s viewing of footage related to the incident. The available information does not say when or where the footage was recorded, whether it has been made public, or what it depicts beyond its connection to the shooting. It also does not provide statements from Crump or family members about the footage or the state’s ruling.
Further details about the officer involved, the other officers referenced in the state’s decision, and any investigation or legal proceedings were not provided. The account also does not specify whether the family or Crump has announced any next steps.
The known details are limited to the child’s identity and age, the location of the fatal shooting, the officer’s firing into a car, the family’s viewing of footage, and the Attorney General’s office’s prior ruling. Without additional information, the events surrounding the shooting and the basis for the state’s conclusion remain unclear.
