The family of a North Carolina man shot dead by cops was shown police bodycam footage of his death for the first time Monday — but are demanding to see more of what they called “an execution.”

Lawyers for Andrew Brown’s family said they were only shown one 20-second bodycam clip of his police shooting death last week and had to fight with prosecutors to even see that much.

“I want to highlight the disrespect to this family, I want to highlight the broken system of justice we have in this country,” Bakari Sellers, one of the family’s attorneys, said after viewing the video. 

“I want you to know that the sheriff was very, very apologetic and diplomatic,” Sellers said. “The sheriff wanted to make sure that the family watched the video. But it was the county attorney that gave us this back and forth.”

According to another Brown attorney, Chantel Cherry-Lassiter, the short video clip shows the 42-year-old victim sitting in his car with his hands on the wheel when deputy sheriffs begin shooting — even as he was complying with their orders.

She said only then is Brown seen backing his car out of the driveway to get to safety, when he is shot dead by the officers outside his home.

“Let’s be clear, this was an execution,” Lassiter said. “Andrew Brown was in his driveway. The sheriff’s truck blocked him in his driveway so he could not exit his driveway.”

“He had his hands firmly on the steering wheeling,” she said. “They run up to his vehicle shooting. He still stood there, sat there in his vehicle with his hands on his steering wheel while being shot at.”

“He finally decides to try to get away and he backs out,” she said. “He was trying to evade being shot. So he backs out — not forward, but backs out away from the officers who are still shooting at him. yelling, ‘stop it, motherf—er,’ goddamn motherf—er.”

“He drives off, the car runs into a tree, and they’re still running behind him,” Lassiter said, adding that at least some of the officers were carrying assault weapons. “His car’s riddled with bullets.” 

The dead man’s son, Khalil Ferebee, was among those who was allowed to see the bodycam footage.

“My dad was executed just for trying to save his own life,” said Ferebee, who is one of Brown’s seven children. “He was executed. It ain’t right. It ain’t right at all.”

The lawyers said they’re demanding the release of additional bodycam from the more than half-dozen cops at the scene, as well as dash cam video.

“We have to keep demanding transparency because we do not feel what the county attorney offered was transparent at all,” attorney Ben Crump, who represents the family, said outside the sheriff’s office.

The video is now expected to be released to the public. 

The release of the footage comes amid rising tension in Elizabeth City, where Brown was shot and killed while fleeing sheriff’s deputies last week — prompting officials to declare a state of emergency early Monday.

Brown’s family was allowed to view the redacted version of the video, but not until nearly 3 p.m. — almost four hours after they were told they would be allowed to see it.

Brown’s relatives and lawyers for the family also continued to demand to see an unredacted version and to have that released to the public, according to a report by WAVY-TV.

“It’s so important that we not let them sweep this under the rug because apparently before you all showed up, they just wanted to sweep it under the rug as they have done with other brothers and sisters who have been unjustifiably killed by the people who are supposed to protect and serve us,” Crump told a crowd outside the sheriff’s office. 

“You would think the most dangerous thing to a police officer is a black man running away,” he added. 

In a statement earlier Monday, Pasquotank County Attorney R. Michael Cox said the law allows his office “to blur some faces on the video” to “protect an active internal investigation.”

Elizabeth City Mayor Bettie Parker said her emergency order, which went into effect at 8 a.m. Monday, comes as officials anticipate a “period of unrest” when video of the shooting death of Andrew Brown, a black man killed by sheriff’s deputies who were serving him a warrant Wednesday.

Parker said peaceful protests are welcome, but said: “our citizens and businesses must be protected from violence or damage.”

Protesters began to gather in the city early on Monday, WAVY said.

Brown, 42, a father of seven, was reported driving away from Pasquotank County sheriff’s deputies on Wednesday when he was shot and killed.

Pasquotank County Sheriff Tommy Wooten released few details last week but said bodycam footage would be released following a preliminary investigation.

In the wake of the shooting three deputies resigned and seven others were placed on administrative leave in a shakeup at the department — although officials said the resignations, including a retirement, were unrelated.

Brown’s death was ruled a homicide by the county coroner, according to an autopsy report obtained by CNN. He was killed by a gunshot wound to the back of his head, the network reported.
