As a rule, Mlive does not call young people who are charged with crimes, but powers are charged as an adult.

The lawsuit, submitted in the US district of Eastern District of Michigan, claims that MPs Christopher Davis and Joseph Edwards have violated the constitutional protection of the powers from unjustified searches and seizures and were negligent during their actions during the chase and arrest of the authority.

The lawsuit claims that Jackson County is negligent because he did not appreciate his law enforcement officers.

Gary Schuette, Sheriff of Jackson County, rejected a comment due to the pending legal dispute.

The lawsuit claims that the teenagers have committed a civilian violation that was developed into an unjustified high -speed hunt. It also argues that the district and the MPs have no qualified immunity due to negligence.

Qualified immunity is a legal law that protects government officials and law enforcement authorities from individual liability. However, this protection does not apply if the accused civil servants have violated a clearly defined constitutional law.

The claim against Davis is likely to be changed or rejected because Davis died in a motorcycle accident on May 25, 2024.

Powers is accused of led the police on April 28, 2023 at 1:40 a.m. after he and his four teenage passengers allegedly shot vehicles with an Orbeez weapon in Summit Township, according to the Jackson County's Sheriff.

An Orbeez weapon is a toy gun that shoots small balls from gel.

After discovering a Sheriff Patrol vehicle, the driver of the Jeep Wrangler, Powers, went north to bend to the Roberts Street in front of the Page Avenue, the police said. The SUV then started to speed up quickly, the police said.

The police later published the Dash Camera video of the persecution, which shows the crash.

The MPs tried to catch up with the Jeep to initiate a traffic stop. When it became apparent that the vehicle accelerated, the officers switched on their skylights and siren and chased the jeep, the police said.

With the persecution of MPs, the Jeep crashed several times near the intersection of the streets of Roberts and E. Ganson and rolled them.

The boys were thrown out of the jeep, thrown into different directions during the Rollover crash and landed several feet from the street, the police said.

Although the SUV was badly damaged in the crash, it landed and continued to the east in E. Ganson Street, the police said.

After the vehicle had traveled to the east for about half a mile, it crashed a second time in the parking lot of the Jackson District Library near the intersection of E. Michigan Avenue and the Dettman Road and ended the persecution.

Powers and another teenager were injured in the jeep and brought to Henry Ford Jackson Hospital for treatment.

The teenagers who were thrown out of the Jarrell vehicle and another teenager were taken to the hospital in a critical condition. Jarrell was later declared dead, while the other teenager was brought to the CS Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor for additional treatment.

Together with the Orbeez weapon, the MPs found a fifth alcohol in search of the vehicle, the police said.

The murder case against Powers stands in front of the judge of Jackson County Circuit, Thomas Wilson.
