    • One year old. That was Kohen Wiley’s age when a Senatobia police officer fired toward the car where his mother was holding him during a response to a shoplifting call involving diapers. Four months after his death, Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office announced on October 19, 2026, that the officer’s use of force was justified, closing the state investigation. The driver was also shot and seriously wounded.
