2 Tacoma police officers charged with murder, 1 with manslaughter in death of Manuel Ellis

Washington State Attorney General (AG) Bob Ferguson filed felony charges Thursday against three Tacoma Police Department officers related to the death of Manuel Ellis. Christopher Burbank and Matthew Collins are charged with second-degree murder, and Timothy Rankine is charged with first-degree manslaughter. Ferguson filed the charges in Pierce County Superior Court. Warrants were issued for the three officers' arrests. All three officers were booked into the Pierce County Jail Thursday afternoon, according to the Pierce County Sheriff's Department. This is the first time the Washington state Attorney General's Office has criminally charged police officers for the unlawful use of deadly force. "The reality is you don't want to be first in this kind of way," said the attorney for the Ellis family, James Bible. "The reality is that at every dinner table that [Manuel Ellis's] mom has sat at over the course of the past 14 months, someone has been missing, at the birthdays for Manuel Ellis's children, they have been missing their father."
