Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office has ruled that multiple officer-involved shootings in Utah, including the fatal shooting of an armed fugitive breaking into a house and a suspect in a double stabbing, were justified. The decisions come after investigations into incidents dating back to 2022, where officers were found not responsible for the deaths of two Utahns during arrests. In Manassas, officers were deemed justified in shooting a man who had stabbed a classmate to death. No charges were brought against officers in these cases.
