检察官指控54岁的希奥多·韦福犯有三项刑事罪名，包括枪杀雷尼莎·麦克布莱德构成二级谋杀罪名。韦福在枪杀案发生后并没有立即被捕，民权组织称原因之一与种族有关。韦福是白人。他被控于清晨在他位于迪尔伯恩海茨市的房屋门前枪杀了手无寸铁的19岁黑人女性麦克布莱德。韦福对警方说，他认为麦克布莱德闯进了他的家，可是韦恩县检察官金·沃斯表示，证据证明这是起谋杀。
"As a result of examining everything, we have made a determination that these are the appropriate charges, and that he did not act in lawful self-defense."

Worthy says neither race nor public opinion played any role in the decision to charge Wafer. For NPR News, I am Sarah Cwiek in Detroit.
