The retired police captain spent several hours on the witness stand Thursday, telling a Pasco County jury about what he says happened the day he shot Oulson in the theater.
He also testified about his career in law enforcement. Reeves helped establish the SWAT team for the Tampa Police Department and ended his career as the head of security for Busch Gardens.
He told the jury he had never drawn his weapon and shot anyone in his years of service as a police officer and says he never encountered rage from anyone the way he did from Oulson the day of the shooting.
“This is great,” Curtis Reeves said after walking out of the courthouse a free man. “It’s been a long eight years and I couldn’t wait for it to be over with. I’m very proud of my team of lawyers here that did a fantastic job in bringing out the truth.”
