Last week, Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer acquitted by a jury of two misdemeanor false-reporting charges, stemming from an incident in January 2021.

In the wake of protests about racial justice and policing, this case sparked strong emotions and a lot of attention.

KUOW reporter Amy Radil is here to talk about the verdict and what it means.
