Police Failed to Respond Before Murder | Panama City Beach News

A 23-year-old man, Lucas Daughtry, was fatally murdered in Panama City after a 911 call reporting threats from his ex-boyfriend went unanswered — the officer who took the call never showed up. The department admitted the officer violated protocol by handling it over the phone, leading to his firing and his supervisor’s demotion. Daughtry’s family, now suing the police, believes timely intervention might have saved his life, as the accused killer has already been charged with murder. This tragic case is unfolding with both criminal and civil proceedings underway. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
