The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office has declined to file charges against six officers, including five who have since been fired, in connection with shootings that left three people dead in Inglewood and Pasadena, according to documents released Wednesday.

Prosecutors concluded that former Inglewood Police Department Officers Sean Reidy, Richard Parcella, Michael Jaen, Andrew Cohen and Jason Cantrell had "an honest belief in the need for self-defense and defense of others" when they fatally shot Marquintan Sandlin, 32, and Kisha Michael, 31, as the couple sat in a parked car Feb. 21, 2016.

The District Attorney's Office also declined to file a criminal case against Pasadena Police Department Officer Edwin Dumaguindin involving an Aug. 15, 2020, shooting that left Anthony McClain dead.
