** (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) ** Trenton, New Jersey — The Attorney General’s Office released video recordings from officer body-worn cameras and a Taser camera related to the shooting on August 21, 2020 in Asbury Park, N.J., in which a police officer fatally shot Hasani Best, 39, of Asbury Park. The shooting remains under investigation by the Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity and Accountability. However, the recordings are being released pursuant to Attorney General Directive 2019-4, the “Independent Prosecutor Directive,” which governs use-of-force investigations in New Jersey and requires that such records, if requested, be released to the public once the initial phase of the investigation is substantially complete. Today investigators met with relatives of Mr. Best to review the 911 call and the video recordings from the body-worn cameras and Taser camera. According to the preliminary investigation, multiple officers of the Asbury Park Police Department responded shortly after 9 p.m. on Aug. 21, 2020 to a report of a loud domestic dispute inside a two-family residence in the 900 block of 4th Avenue in Asbury Park. When police arrived, the man and woman involved in the dispute were at the residence. The woman was outside, and the man, later identified as Hasani Best, barricaded himself inside the upstairs apartment. Monmouth County sheriff’s officers arrived to assist the Asbury Park police officers. Officers tried to negotiate with Mr. Best through the door of the apartment in an effort to end the standoff. During the incident, Mr. Best opened the door at various times, revealing that he was armed with a knife. Mr. Best continued to hold the knife despite repeated requests from the police to drop the knife. Officers attempted to use a Taser, but it was not effective. Mr. Best remained armed with the knife, and at approximately 10:10 p.m., an Asbury Park officer shot and fatally wounded him. Officers and EMS rendered medical aid, and EMS transported Mr. Best to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, N.J., where he was pronounced dead at 10:31 p.m. The identity of the officer who fired at Mr. Best was previously released by the Attorney General’s Office. He is Sgt. Sean DeShader of the Asbury Park Police Department. The investigation is being conducted pursuant to a state law enacted in January 2019 (P.L.2019, c.1), which requires that the Attorney General’s Office conduct investigations of a person’s death that occurs during an encounter with a law enforcement officer acting in the officer’s official capacity or while the decedent is in custody.

** (Disclaimer: Video posted strictly for educational and information purposes only) ** A Sequoyah County Deputy who was stabbed while trying to serve an arrest warrant is on routine administrative leave while the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) conducts an investigation into the incident that left the suspect dead. Sequoyah County Sheriff Larry Lane said Deputy Christian Goode was sore from two stab wounds but was out of the hospital and doing well considering he was stabbed twice by Phillip Joel Trammel, 30, of Muldrow. Goode was involved in an incident about 4:30 p.m. Friday in which he was attempting to locate and arrest Trammel, Lane said. Trammel was wanted on three charges that include forgery, non-payment of child support and non-compliance with the sex offender registry. Deputy Goode and Muldrow Officer Brad Roberts went to a residence in Muldrow in search of Trammell. Lane said the residence at 10th and Enid streets in Muldrow was not Trammel's and a female answered the door when the officers arrived. When asked by Goode if Trammel was there, the female replied she didn't know, but told Goode what bedroom Trammel usually stayed in, Lane said. He said the woman granted Goode consent to search. Lane said Goode began to search the house and went back out to get Roberts to go through the home with him. As the two officers were conducting the search, they discovered Trammel hiding under a pile of clothes. Trammel came out from under the pile of clothes brandishing a knife. Trammel yelled expletives at Goode and Roberts and said he would kill them, that he wasn't going back to jail. Goode was stabbed twice, once in the shoulder and a second time to the chest, below the left breast, Lane said. “He had a 5 centimeter deep stab wound to the chest. It missed a main artery by about one millimeter,” Lane said. After being stabbed, Lane said Goode managed to return fire, striking Trammel three times, twice in the torso and once in the arm. He said Goode fired a total of eight rounds. Trammel died at the scene. Just after the shooting, Muldrow Assistant Police Chief Tim Keith arrived and placed a tourniquet on Goode's arm before transporting him to a Fort Smith hospital. Goode was able to be treated and later released. Lane said Goode's name was not released immediately as a precaution and is routine until family members are notified. Goode has been with the sheriff's department about eight months, Lane said, adding that he believe Goode had been in law enforcement about four or five years. Lane praised Goode, saying, “He did the right thing. Lane said he learned from Trammel's family members, after the fact, that Trammel had made statements that he was not going to be taken by police. His body has been sent to the office of the state medical examiner. Lane said Goode will return to work after the OSBI completes its investigation, which he said could take three to four weeks.
