The issue of how and whether
officers asked Griffin to identify
himself was closely questioned
by his Baltimore-based lawyers,
William “Billy” Murphy and Mal-
colm Ruff. Under Ocean City
ordinance, it’s a m isdemeanor to
refuse to provide proper identifi-
cation in certain situations “by
providing the person’s name, ad-
dress, and date of birth.”
They also questioned whether
the officer’s use of force was
appropriate to the circum-
stances. “What was more danger-
ous, this young man walking
through your arm, or the use of a
Taser while he had his hands up?”
Ruff asked Vincent.
“I think walking through the
arm is more dangerous,” the offi-
cer replied. Asked the same ques-
tion, Laughlin answered that the
Taser was more dangerous.
Senior Judge W. Newton Jack-
son III, visiting from Wicomico
County Circuit Court, agreed to
allow the remainder of the trial
to be postponed so that tran-
scripts of the testimony can be
generated and the lawyers can
make written motions. It is
scheduled to resume on Jan. 5.
The trial of a second teenager,
Brian Anderson, whose violent
arrest along the boardwalk was
also captured in viral video this
summer, also was postponed un-
til Jan. 5.
[email protected]cers’ accounts had been accurate.
“Not at all,” she testified.
Ewing said that when Vincent
first approached Griffin he
grabbed the teen by the arm and
said, “No vaping on the board-
walk.”
“He was not aware really of the
officers coming toward him,” she
said. “Somebody comes up and
grabs you, you’re going to jump.
You don’t know who’s grabbing
you. It’s a n atural reaction.”
She said other officers con-
verged quickly.
“All the officers were running
up around him,” Ewing said.
“There wasn’t much time in be-
tween, and then they were all
yelling.... There was like so
many commands going at once.”
She said the officers were yell-
ing for Griffin to remove his
backpack and get on the ground.
She said the officers hadn’t asked
Griffin to identify himself.
She testified that no more than
20 seconds passed between when
officers approached Griffin and
when he was shot with the Taser.
Griffin’s lawyers asked three of
his other companions whether
they agreed with Ewing. All said
they did.
“I remember them coming up
and grabbing my brother by his
left arm,” Griffin’s 17-year-old
brother, Tayvin, testified. “He
wasn’t aware of what was hap-
pening.”the arrest, one of several confron-
tations between police and Black
teens last summer that elicited
calls for reform.
The of ficers’ depictions of
what transpired before police
charged Griffin with offenses in-
cluding disorderly conduct, re-
sisting arrest and assault, con-
flict with eyewitness accounts
from Griffin’s friends and family.
The encounter began when
Ocean City bicycle of ficer Corwin
Vincent said he spotted Griffin,
then 18, exhaling a cloud of vapor
along the boardwalk on June 6 as
he walked with several compan-
ions. (Vaping on the boardwalk is
prohibited by town ordinance.)
Vincent, 28, said he stopped
his bike and put his arm in front
of Griffin’s path.
“I requested him to identify
himself,” Vincent said. “Mr. Grif-
fin refused to identify himself. He
pushed right through my arm
and continued to walk.”
Vincent said he considered the
teen’s action an assault. He said
he grabbed Griffin by the back of
his shirt, but he kept walking. “As
that was going on, Mr. Griffin was
yelling in a loud voice that he was
going to kill us,” testified Vincent,
who has been with the depart-
ment since 2016.
As Griffin kept walking, Vin-
cent said, he and another officer,
Joseph Laughlin, drew their
Tasers and began yelling for Grif-
fin to get on the ground. Under
department policy, only one offi-
cer may use a Taser, so Vincent
re-holstered his.
At that point, video taken by
Griffin’s friend begins with him
facing officers with his hands up.
Seconds later, the teen appears to
reach for his backpack strap.
Laughlin testified that he de-
ployed his Taser “to end the
altercation.”
“We had already tried hands
on, and it was clear it wasn’t
effective, so I went with the
Taser,” Laughlin said. “It would
have been an easier way to get
this done quickly, safely, and get
it off the boardwalk.”
Laughlin fired, and Griffin,
who had come from his Cecil
County, Md., home with friends
to celebrate his high school grad-
uation, collapsed.
Griffin’s friend Cori Ewing, 18,
filmed the video. A lawyer for
Griffin asked whether the offi-OCEAN CITY FROM B1
