CONCORD, N.H. (AP) – Despite new charges against Gregory Floyd, the attorney general says there is no reason to revisit whether he should have been exonerated for his involvement in a fatal shooting last year.

Floyd, 50, of Easton, made headlines last May when he shot and killed a man who had just shot and killed Franconia Police Cpl. Bruce McKay. Last week, after being convicted of threatening a neighbor, Floyd erupted in the courthouse and was charged with assaulting a court officer, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.

Attorney General Kelly Ayotte said if new evidence came forward about the shooting, her office can take another look at the case, but that hasn’t happened. But relatives of Liko Kenney, the 24-year-old Easton man Floyd killed, want the state to reconsider filing charges.

“They (state police) informed me my nephew was shot and killed by Gregory Floyd and they called him a good Samaritan. I accepted it at that time. I had no idea who he was, but now I know he is no good Samaritan,” said Kenney’s uncle, bill Kenney.

Ayotte determined within 24 hours that Floyd was justified in killing Kenney on May 11, 2007. Kenney had been stopped by McKay, who pepper-sprayed him. Kenney then shot McKay and ran over him. Floyd, who had stopped nearby and was watching from his pickup truck, grabbed McKay’s gun and killed Kenney.

Bill Kenney believes the FBI should investigate the shootings. He said he wasn’t surprised that the state will not revisit the case in light of the new charges against Floyd.

“It’s a knee-jerk reaction,” he said. “I believe there is a real disconnect between Concord and north of the notches. The White Mountains offer more than a little barrier between north and south.”

Chichester lawyer Mark Sisti, who represents Kenney’s family, said they haven’t decided whether to file a lawsuit. He said if a police officer kills a civilian in the line of duty, it would take more than a day for the attorney general to decide if the shooting was justified.

But Ayotte said it is common to make preliminary findings in 24 hours that a shooting was justified. In Floyd’s case, there was ample evidence because a dashboard camera in McKay’s cruiser captured the incident, she said.
