Banko Brown’s family crushed as AG backs DA decision not to charge shooter

In a terse, one-page letter, the California Attorney General confirmed that DA Brooke Jenkins’ office did not abuse its discretion in declining to file charges against the Walgreens security guard who last year shot Banko Brown to death. Brown was on April 27, 2023 stopped as he was leaving the Walgreens on Market Street near Fourth Street. Brown had allegedly shoplifted some $14.64 worth of snacks; he was beaten and pinned to the ground by security guard Michael Earl-Wayne Anthony.
