Civil rights attorneys are planning to file a federal lawsuit against the Pennsylvania State Police troopers who fatally shot 19-year-old Christian Hall in December 2020.
Hall “was having a mental health crisis,” attorney Ben Crump said at a Wednesday press conference. Crump is known for high-profile civil rights cases, including representing the families of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.

“There is a suggestion that he was contemplating suicide. He was crying out for help. Christian Hall needed a helping hand, but yet he got bullets while he had his hands up,” Crump said.
Crump posted a video, taken from a car with a view of the Route 33 southbound overpass to Interstate 80 where Hall was killed on Dec. 30, that appears to show Hall with his hands up prior to being shot.
A PSP press release issued that day stated that Hall put his gun on the ground when ordered to do so, but later “became uncooperative and retrieved the firearm and began walking towards the Troopers.” According to the release, he pointed the gun in their direction, and the troopers fired at him.
The 20-second video posted by Crump shows Hall being shot and falling to the ground, but does not show any approach he may have made toward police before they opened fire.
In addition to the local investigation conducted by state police and the Monroe County District Attorney’s Office, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro should also investigate, attorney Devon Jacob said.
“It is simply impossible to have an independent investigation when you’re investigating people that you work with every day,” Jacob said.
The state police do not comment on pending litigation, said Corporal Brent Miller, director of the PSP communications office, but he did defend the process by which officer-involved shootings are investigated.
"The Pennsylvania State Police is confident in the protocols it has in place to ensure each Trooper involved shooting is investigated thoroughly and transparently. Public support and confidence is earned through a fair and impartial process of investigating and adjudicating complaints, allegations, and use of force incidents," Miller wrote in an email.
Incidents are investigated by the Major Case Team, he said, which includes "investigators from several different stations, not including the station to which the involved Troopers are assigned."
The local district attorney "makes a final decision on the disposition of the member-involved shooting and can request additional investigatory steps be taken in any areas necessary in order to make a fair and impartial decision when applying the facts to the law. Additionally, PSP's Internal Affairs Division from the Bureau of Integrity and Professional Standards conducts a parallel investigation with the goal of ensuring that department protocols and procedures have been followed by the involved Trooper(s)."
Shapiro can only investigate if the local DA’s office refers the matter to him, the attorney general said in a statement.
“The death of 19-year-old Christian Hall is a tragedy. My heart goes out to of the people in Monroe County, and Hall's loved ones in Stroudsburg,” Shapiro said. “The case is being investigated by PSP and the Monroe County District Attorney’s Office. Under Pennsylvania law, I do not have jurisdiction to investigate this matter unless I receive a referral from District Attorney Christine. The loss of any young life is deeply painful, and I expect local law enforcement to give this matter thorough review.”
The troopers involved have not been named by the PSP, and "were recently placed back on full duty," Miller said.
Hall was a 19-year-old Chinese man who was adopted as a baby by Fe and Gareth Hall, according to a press release from Crump’s law firm.
Fe Hall asked the state police to put themselves in her shoes: “If that was your child on the bridge and he needed help, would you be OK? Would you accept it if your fellow troopers shot and killed him instead of helping him? Will you be able to sleep at night knowing that your son will never be home, that you’ll never see him get married, that he’ll never have kids, he’ll never grow old, because your fellow troopers shot him dead?”
