Sean Moore, 44, died following a 2017 confrontation with San Francisco police outside his home. Officers had responded to a noise complaint from a neighbor who held a restraining order against Moore. Body camera footage shown by authorities recorded Moore, described as unarmed and reportedly experiencing mental health issues, attempting to retreat into his house while being struck with a baton and then shot twice by Officer Kenneth Cha.

In 2021 the then–District Attorney charged Officer Cha with voluntary manslaughter, assault with a semi-automatic firearm, and related counts, an uncommon prosecution of an on-duty officer in San Francisco. The proceedings have faced repeated delays and generated public outcry and frustration from Moore’s family. Officer Cha remains employed by the San Francisco Police Department.

Does anyone have information about the 2017 incident or about Moore’s life and activities in the neighborhood that could help clarify what happened?
