Murder Charge Dropped in Chiefs Parade Shooting
10 Mar
Summary
- Murder charge against Dominic Miller in parade shooting dropped.
- Prosecutors cited self-defense and doubt over cause of death.
- Miller served two years and will be released soon.
In a Jackson County Circuit Court on Monday, the murder charge against Dominic Miller was dismissed. Miller had been accused of second-degree murder following the death of Lisa Lopez-Galvan at the 2024 Chiefs' championship parade.
Prosecutors stated that evidence indicated Miller was not the initial shooter and raised doubts about whether his shot caused the victim's fatality, suggesting self-defense was a factor. Miller's attorney criticized the prosecution for damaging his client's reputation for two years before acknowledging the evidence.
Miller will soon be released after serving his two-year sentence for unlawful use of a weapon, which he has already completed while incarcerated and hospitalized. His legal counsel expressed relief but concern over the initial murder charge.
