The Hudson County Prosecutor?s Office detective charged with murdering a man in a Maryland road rage incident was found not guilty on all counts just before noon today, an official confirmed.

After several hours of deliberation yesterday and this morning, the jury found Joseph Lamont Walker, 41, of Eastampton, not guilty of first-degree murder, second-degree murder, voluntary manslaughter, using a handgun during a felony and using a handgun during a violent crime.

Walker had been charged with murdering Joseph Harvey Jr., 36, of Halethorpe, Md., who was shot to death on June 8, 2013, officials said. Walker was driving back to New Jersey with his wife and three children when the incident occurred.

The Baltimore Sun reported the verdict earlier today.

The ass had the option of calling police, backing away, ignoring the situation or simply not stopping while calling cops - It sounds that he was NEVER cornered into a situation (highway) or family was in an immediate life threatening situation.

If the dead guy had no weapon or made no direct threat then this EX-cop is toast.

The psych testing at recruitment time should also be done every 5 years to see if individuals (officers) develop an authoritarian, self-righteous attitude to every aspect / situation in life - This is also one of the reasons police have a high divorce rate.


So, you do not know if the dead guy did have weapons or whether he did make threats, - but you feel you are sufficiently informed to declare the other side a "gun toting idiot".


You don't get CHARGED for murder if it was self-defence or be put on a $1 million bond if it wasn't serious that you might do a 'runner' while on bond.

New Jersey police officer charged with murder in road-rage shooting

By David Jones
Sun Jun 9, 2013 10:23pm EDT

(Reuters) - A police officer assigned to a county prosecutor's office in New Jersey has been charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter for allegedly shooting a man to death in Maryland in what police describe as an incident of road rage.

Joseph Walker, 40, was being held on $1 million bond on the charges stemming from the shooting on Saturday night, Maryland State Police said.

He lives in Eastampton, New Jersey, and works for the Hudson County, New Jersey, prosecutor's office.

Walker is accused of killing Maryland resident Joseph Harvey Jr., 36, in a confrontation on the shoulder of Route 3 northbound near the intersection with Interstate 97, south of Baltimore, police said.

Maryland State Police said they were still investigating what led to the confrontation.

Harvey was driving a green Honda Accord with one passenger, and Walker was driving a gold Kia minivan with his wife and three children, police said.

Police said the confrontation appeared to have started about a mile south of where Walker is accused of shooting Harvey.

Harvey and his passenger got out of the Honda, and Harvey began walking toward the minivan with Walker and his family inside, parked 100 feet to 150 feet from the car.

Walker then fired at Harvey with a Glock .45-caliber handgun, police said.

Harvey was taken by ambulance to Baltimore Washington Medical Center where he was pronounced dead with three gunshot wounds, and Walker was taken to the same facility after he complained of chest pains.

Walker was scheduled to appear before a court commissioner on Monday morning.
