Connor Schilling, the Memphis police officer who fatally shot 19-year-old Darrius Stewart last year, will receive line-of-duty disability payments of $1,138.19 twice a month beginning April 1. The Memphis Pension Board today approved the amount, along with 70 percent subsidy of his monthly health care premiums, after Schilling claimed he has post-traumatic stress disorder following the July 2015 incident. The case is now under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. Read more from The Commercial Appeal.
