Description
Jury selection started on Tuesday in the trial of Richard Rotter, the man accused of killing an Everett police officer.
He is charged with aggravated first-degree murder for the killing of Everett Police Officer Dan Rocha.
The day began with a jury pool of 200 people and will eventually be whittled down to 12.
Prosecutors say on March 25, 2022, Rocha saw a man moving guns between two cars outside a north Everett Starbucks.
Rocha activated his body camera and approached.
The video shows Rocha was calm and cordial as he asked the suspect what was happening. Then a struggle ensued.
Rocha was shot three times in the head. The suspect then ran over Rocha’s body before being arrested after a brief chase through downtown Everett.
