BANGOR, Maine (AP) A Maine district attorney says she will prosecute a former police officer who shot and killed a teenager if the state doesn’t.

Natasha Irving, the Democratic district attorney, said the forensic evidence and statements don’t sync in the 2007 shooting of 18-year-old Gregori Jackson, of Whitefield.

He was shot multiple times by a Waldoboro reserve police officer after a traffic stop.

Attorney General Aaron Frey says the district attorney doesn’t have the authority to prosecute the case and should’ve consulted with his office before announcing her intentions.
