Prosecutors request evidence from defense in Kerrick case

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Prosecutors just filed a motion asking for any evidence compiled by the defense team for a Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department officer charged with killing an unarmed man.

Channel 9 obtained the request from the state asking for any reports, photos and video obtained by Randall Kerrick's attorney.
 
Kerrick is charged with voluntary manslaughter in the shooting death of Jonathan Ferrell.
 
The defense now has 10 days to fulfill that request.

For months, Ferrell's family has been pushing to get the dashcam video from the night of his death.
 
In January, they filed a civil suit against the police chief, Kerrick, the city and the county.
