Press Release Archives PRESS RELEASE September 3, 2008 Re: June 23, 2008 Lehi Police Officer Involved Shooting Incident As the Utah County Attorney I charged and authorized to investigate Utah County deaths that occur, among other reasons, as a result of violence or gunshot, or while the decedent was in police custody (Section 26-4-7). Further, I am to “determine if the decedent died by unlawful means and . . . if criminal prosecution shall be instituted” (Section 26-4-21). The Utah County Law Enforcement Officer Involved Incident Protocol Task Force has concluded its investigation into the June 23, 2008, officer involved shooting incident in Lehi. After reviewing the results of that investigation and the pertinent statutes, I conclude that Lehi City Police Officers (Captain) Harold Terry, Greg Neer and Scott McDonald were legally justified in their use of deadly force against the decedent, Ms. Kelly Wark. In other words, I find that Ms. Wark died through lawful means and I determine that no criminal prosecution will be instituted against Officers Terry, Neer or McDonald. For information regarding a release of the County Attorney’s opinion letter (pursuant to GRAMA), please submit your request to Deputy Utah County Attorney Dianne Orcutt at (801) 851-8009 (fax). PRESS RELEASE January 16, 2008 Re: State of Utah v. Timmy Olsen and Christopher Jeppson On January 14, 2008 Agent Mike Anderson testified at the preliminary hearing held in this case. During Agent Anderson’s testimony defense counsel Scott Williams made it appear as if Agent Anderson had been untruthful when testifying previously before the federal grand jury. The Utah County Attorney’s Office has filed the attached motion to correct the preliminary hearing record and has attached the transcript of Agent Anderson’s prior grand jury testimony. That transcript makes it clear that Agent Anderson had not only testified truthfully before the grand jury–but had properly disclosed all of the information that Mr. Williams accused Agent Anderson of withholding. Accordingly, any implication that Agent Anderson was untruthful is false.
