Home security camera recording showing the time when a Decatur, Alabama, police officer shot Stephen Clay Perkins down in front of his home in the early hours of Sept. 29, 2023 at the 3900 Block of Ryan Drive in Decartur. The police said he had a gun when they shot him.

What in God’s name?? And can someone explain how “qualified immunity” was ever a thing? Thanks in advance…
Hands were cleary up
The real question here is why is Decatur using police resources for a civil matter? If a financial company had a suit against this citizens surely the police had a repo warrant? That was sarcasm…I invite any tow company to come to my property and try to take any of my vehicles without a warrant.
what good is showing it if you blur everything out
Stop blurring it out!!! Why even post it?!?!
Morgan County CORRUPT!
I don't know why the police are lying his car was not delinquent he was current on payments and no tow truck set those cameras off…
Now it's time to release the body cam and the dispatch recording let's be transparent here …
How much effin around do you have to do to find out….and how much do you want to find out ?
This is actually a really simple problem to fix…
Step1 : get rid of qualified immunity
Step2 : limit the power and influence of police unions
Step3 : anyone who carries a gun needs to be licensed and insured…
And just like car insurance too many offenses your premium goes up to me accidents you lose your license and coverage.
Step4 : all settlements be paid from their pension fund…. Instead of City funds and taxpayer dollars
It's Alabama. I know you don't expect better
I hope this Trajedy Gets More National Attention ! My Condolenes to the Family 🏹❤️💯
Pigs can get away with lynching you as long as they don’t use rope or admit that it was race based. Facts!
They shot the poor guy because he was late on his truck payments? That’s disgusting!!
Wow! That was a murder plain and simple. That’s psychopathic behavior. I can’t imagine k@lling someone for no good reason.
43 seconds of footage
😢 My Condolences to the family
What initially happened?
Upload that !
So… You basically just blur the part where he points a gun against the police officers?
I really can't tell what happened from this angle
Im sure they are trying to delete everything… BODY CAMS NOWWWW
Its blurred to hide the truth. That man had his hands up. No gun
He didn’t have a gun in his hand when this person returned with the police and in the audio you hear them acknowledge that. They illegally helped a repo and basically ambushed this man at his home. They didn’t come to the door. They hid and shot him soon after he shined his flashlight. The video shown is after the repo man went and told the police that he has a gun. By law they were supposed to go to STEVE PERKINS and make sure everything was peaceful. That’s not what the officers did. I hope more light gets shined on what’s going on in Decatur Alabama
This bs sum needs to be done about this bcuz that wasn't right,praying for his family
It was a kid. He had a Flashlight. RIP
Maybe he should have made his car payments, and maybe shouldn't have pulled a gun on the tow truck driver. And dam sure shouldn't point a gun at police!!! His actions caused his death!!!
A Good man was killed there, not given the time to respond to the police before they started shooting. Hiding in the shadows waiting for him to come out and address the tow truck driver for the second time. Multiple police, they knew the man’s full name could have easily looked him up and seen he had no priors and not a one went to this man’s door and knocked not one police car is seen because they purposely hid them To address the situation. They told the truck driver to go back used him as bait and once Perkins came out they opened fire before even fully announcing their presence.
Officer oinky on the case
Hands up! Don't shoot! How many times we gotta say it.
They ambushed him smdh you can see they were shining a light in his window he probably thought it was the tow people and came running out and they shot him dead this was an ambush
Another murder by the COrruPtS
If he had a gun the Officer across the street didn’t draw his weapon until he was across the street, and after he was shot!!
