ge County Dist. Atty. Attorney Tony Rackauckas plans to hold a news conference Wednesday morning to announce whether he will file criminal charges against the six officers involved in the death of homeless Fullerton man Kelly Thomas.
Officials from the district attorney's office have said they were awaiting toxicology and other test results from the coroner before making a decision on the case. That report was handed over to the district attorney's office Tuesday, but the findings were not made public.
Thomas, a 37-year-old homeless man with schizophrenia who was a regular presence in downtown Fullerton, was injured July 5 during a confrontation with the officers, who witnesses said beat him until he was unconscious.
He died five days later, after being removed from life support.
