Officer James Charles
"Boz" Boswell and his partner, Officer C. Gainer, were
on a traffic stop when a complainant from a prior scene approached
them for additional information. Officer Boswell advised the complaint
that they would be of assistance as soon as possible.
Craig Neil Ogan then approached, demanding assistance from the officers.
Officer Boswell repeatedly advised him to wait, but Ogan demanded
immediate assistance. As officer Boswell was unlocking the rear
door of his patrol vehicle, Ogan produced a firearm from his right
jacket pocket and shot Officer Boswell in the head. Officer Boswell
died at the scene. Ogan attempted to flee the area but was shot
by Officer Boswells partner. Ogan was convicted of Capital
Murder and was executed by lethal injection.
