Anchorage, AK, October 22, 2026 —
The family of Kohen Wiley, a 1-year-old boy fatally shot by a police officer in Senatobia, Mississippi, disputes the state’s conclusion that the shooting was justified. The family’s disagreement is especially pronounced after members viewed body-worn camera footage of the incident.
The available information does not identify the officer or the state agency or officials responsible for the finding. It also does not provide the date of the shooting, describe the events leading up to it, or explain the reasoning behind the state’s conclusion.
Details about the body-worn camera footage have not been provided, including what it shows or when the family viewed it. The family’s specific objections to the state’s finding are also not described. No direct statements from the family or state officials were included in the account.
As a result, the basis for the state’s conclusion and the family’s disagreement cannot be independently outlined from the information available. The account does not say whether any further review or action is planned, or provide details about the officer’s status. Those matters remain unspecified.
