Cops Fatally Shoot Bride’s Uncle at Her Wedding

It was a dream wedding day, until a 911 call came in that a guest was physically assaulting other guests. When cops arrived, they ended up fatally shooting the man, who turned out to be the bride's uncle. Now, the heartbroken newlyweds and other family members are speaking out. It happened when Janisha and Gionni Paul were celebrating their nuptials at a popular venue outside Orlando. Janisha insists her 39-year-old uncle was not out of control at the wedding, and the shooting was unjustified.

That’s messed up. Hopefully they release the cam footage to see what really happened.
Edit: upon further review, this guy asked for it.

Blame the caller who made him out to be an old-lady attacking monster

Yo this dude literally assaulted two officers and the family completely lied about him not being the aggressor. I’m glad the body cam was released.

This is why you gotta see what actually happened instead of just going off of what family members say.

I have edited this comment, because after police footage was made public, it was revealed that the man shot assaulted both guests and the police. He was shot out of self defense as he tackled an officer and could’ve used his weapons for worse.

Obviously the family hasn’t watched the body cam.

I would question the individual/woman who called 911 as to what she thought she may have seen, and what actually happened. How did the police know to approach him? I’m sure that there were plenty of other men that was there. Imagine being the uncle and being approached by the police being accused of something that you didn’t do. Of course I could see how the uncle got upset. If he was a few feet away from the bride at the time he was shot, don’t you think that the bride and groom would’ve seen the uncle being unruly? I wish the outcome was very different.

Body cam shows he was in the wrong and that the cop was justified.

their wedding anniversary is now the same as his death day… that sucks. condolences to his family and friends.

[Adeptusmagos]

Seems like the caller didn’t like him, but who knows. I feel sorry for these people

[ramblinrose]

Sounds suspiciously like the work of a "Karen" mixed up in this. How horrible for the family & friends. 😥

[CERTIFIED--]

I just saw the body cams footage today and I myself say it was 100% justified and it angers me to see some of yall defending the guy who literally knocked a cop to the floor.

[Minding]

Why didn’t they mention the 911 call?? Who was that??

[tobibanks]

The caller sounded like someone who could have been working at the wedding. Why not bring this situation to the attention of the bride and groom first?

“He wasn’t out of control”
Damn that knocked out cop needs a Oscar

[skullmasher]

Watched the footage, completely justified, and could have been prevented had the family not interfered.

[PianoMessage]

• Seems like there's more to this story, why did he knock the one cop unconscious? Why was he resisting arrest and went towards the other cop before they shot him??? Not to mention the taser didn't work 🤦🏻‍♂️

[GorgieClarissa]

he wasn't out of control... but he knocked a cop unconscious???

[dawitdogbehaviorist]

The family is to blame. They caused the death of their uncle. The audacity for them to think he is innocent is insane.

[StreetSkollaDiary]

Did anyone miss the part we're he knocked out 1 cop 1st a taser didn't work. And he went to attack the cop that shot him ? I didn't. 😆
