Prosecutors have dropped criminal charges against a South Florida mother accused of stalking the officer who shot and killed her son<\/a> nearly four years ago.<\/p>\n

In June of 2022, Officer Jamie Pino with the Miami-Dade Police Department, now known as the Sheriff’s Office, fatally shot 21-year-old Richard Hollis<\/a> after records stated he noticed him holding “two nine-inch chef knives in an aggressive manner.”<\/p>\n

The incident happened at an apartment complex in the 8000 block of Southwest 149th Avenue.<\/p>\n

Pino claimed he was forced to shoot, and after reviewing the case, the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office decided the officer’s actions were justified, a decision that the victim\u2019s mother, Gamaly Hollis, has never agreed with.<\/p>\n

“I’m gonna kill your son”<\/p>\n

In April of 2024, NBC6 exclusively obtained body camera video<\/a> where Pino confronted Gamaly Hollis 10 months before the killing, about her son’s mental health issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cMa’am I don\u2019t know how to tell you this but I have been here before. The last time I went to Baker Act your child you wanted to stop me,” Pino told her on Aug. 10, 2021 according to the body camera video. “Your child is an adult and you can\u2019t control him\u2026you are wasting our time. This is a waste of our time. Because if you don\u2019t like the way we work, don\u2019t call us.”<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tA mother is facing charges for allegedly stalking a Miami-Dade officer who shot and killed her son back in 2022.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

Police were responding to the Hollis household. Body camera video from that same day also showed Pino stating he was willing to kill her son.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you have a problem with the way police deal with your son, like you had the problem last time, don\u2019t call us. We are not social workers, we are police officers,\u201d said Pino. \u201cIf your son takes a BB gun or a real gun out on me, I\u2019m gonna kill your son.”<\/p>\n

Ten months after that interaction was caught on body camera, police officers were called again after residents heard screaming inside the Hollis household.<\/p>\n

Police said Pino tased Richard Hollis because he had knives, but it had no effect. The officer later fatally shot him. The medical examiner\u2019s office ruled Richard Hollis’ cause of death to be gunshot wounds. He had six different entrance wounds.<\/p>\n

Mother Arrested<\/p>\n

The grieving mother was arrested two months after her son was killed for stalking and resisting an officer. Police records stated she entered an active crime scene while trying to look for Pino, who was the subject of a police-involved shooting.<\/p>\n

Video showed Gamaly Hollis pulling up to a crime scene and telling Pino “you killed my son” in Spanish. Pino was heard responding, “I did. I\u2019m sorry. Maybe if you did a better job there wouldn\u2019t be a problem.”<\/p>\n

Gamaly Hollis was eventually arrested on charges of stalking, resisting an officer, and violating an injunction.<\/p>\n

Her defense attorneys previously argued Hollis’ charges should be dropped because she was just trying to expose government misconduct.<\/p>\n

She was eventually found guilty of violating the stay-away order against the officer. A judge sentenced her to about a year in jail. She appealed, but the Third District Court of Appeals affirmed, according to prosecutors.<\/p>\n

Pending Charges<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Hollis learned that about four years after her arrest, prosecutors had dropped the remaining stalking and resisting an officer charges.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors told NBC6 that their office spoke with Pino and that he had advised that Hollis had not done anything recently that would concern him.<\/p>\n

The prosecutors added that they advised Pino, “we saw no reason to continue prosecuting her in light of (a) the fact she already was adjudicated on the violation of injunction charge and served 364 days in jail; and (b) has been complying with the injunction for some time.”<\/p>\n

After Pino green lit the dismissal of charges, Chief Assistant Stephan K. Talpins announced the drop of charges Thursday morning during Gamaly Hollis’ hearing.<\/p>\n

In response to the drop in charges, she told NBC6, “I was in jail for no reason. I lost everything, especially my son. I feel very ashamed about the justice system and the killer who is still working in the police department.”<\/p>\n

Pino was cleared from any wrongdoing by the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prosecutors have dropped criminal charges against a South Florida mother accused of stalking the officer who shot and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":247968,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[123,125,124,373],"class_list":["post-247967","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news","tag-miami-dade-county"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247967","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=247967"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247967\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/247968"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=247967"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=247967"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=247967"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
