Daily News The former Philly police officer whose murder case was dismissed by a judge has sued DA Larry Krasner
In a federal lawsuit, Ryan Pownall said Krasner repeatedly violated his constitutional rights while seeking to convict him of murder in an on-duty shooting. that could have crippled his defense.After that, Pownall said, Krasner withheld from his lawyers an expert report that concluded that his “use of deadly force in this case was justified.”All the while, Pownall said, Krasner regularly and improperly discussed the case in the media — including to a documentary crew, which released an hour-long episode about the prosecution featuring footage shot inside the DA’s Office.

Supreme Court sides with former Philly cop facing murder charges and says DA Krasner can’t ‘rewrite the law’ Pownall, in his suit, cites rulings from McDermott and state Supreme Court Justice Kevin Dougherty that criticized how Krasner’s office handled Pownall’s prosecution. McDermott, in documents filed after dismissing the charges, said the DA’s Office ”committed multiple errors” during the grand jury process that violated Pownall’s rights — including their “intentional, deliberate choice” to not tell panelists how and when police officers are justified in firing their weapons. McDermott also said prosecutors “demonstrated a lack of candor” by “misstating the law” in seeking to bypass Pownall’s preliminary hearing.
