339: George Graves – Police Custody Death of Earl Faison

Retired agent George E. Graves, Jr. reviews his investigation of five Orange, New Jersey Police Officers for the wrongful death and violation of the civil rights of Earl Faison. On April 8, 1999, Orange Police Department Officer Joyce Carnegie (RIP) was shot and killed by an armed robbery suspect she had stopped for questioning. Several days later, Faison was arrested as a suspect. He died less than an hour after being in police custody. Further investigation determined that Faison was not responsible for Officer Carnegie’s murder.

 

George Graves was nominated for the prestigious FBI Director’s award for his successful resolution of the case, a highlight of his career. He served in the FBI for 24 years.
