It took almost two weeks, and pressure from Ham's family and other Leonardtown residents, before the state police released the name of the officer, Joseph Azzari. The cops, however, have still never said how many times Azzari, described by superiors as a two-year veteran, fired his weapon or how many bullets hit Ham.
Police and public officials have released almost no information about the shooting since the day Ham died, and have done seemingly nothing to resolve the questions hanging over the case. They have never said who made the 911 calls that triggered the deadly encounter or released the recordings. No video footage of Ham's shooting has ever come out; Maryland State Police are not currently required to wear cameras.

Here's the timeline of the shooting based on information from the audio recording, exactly as published in the County Times:
At 1:26:35 p.m. on April 13 the trooper begins firing his service weapon, a Glock 22 .40 caliber pistol, which has a magazine capacity of 15 rounds.
At 1:26:39 p.m., the firing has stopped briefly after 10 shots; those shots were fired in five seconds.
At 1:26:42 p.m., the recording shows the trooper fired shot number 11 three seconds after the initial salvo. Evidence markers from the scene indicated the officer moved about nine to 12 feet closer to Ham before firing shot number 11.
At 1:27:30 p.m., emergency sirens can be heard, 48 seconds after the 11th shot was fired.
At 1:27:39 p.m., the officer opens fire again, firing four additional shots at close range, 57 seconds after shot number 11. The gunfire ended at 1:27:42 p.m.
That's 15 bullets in three volleys over one minute and seven seconds. Again, neither the police nor prosecutors have yet said how many shots hit Ham. In August, Richard Fritz, state's attorney for St. Mary's County, told the County Times that his office couldn't complete its investigation because the state had yet to finish an autopsy on Ham. The teen was killed in April.
Wasn't her body found out in the countryside somewhere? So a few extra hours. In a case of missing white woman syndrome - the media wants answers ASAP.
The murder was in April.
And how fucking fast did that autopsy of Gabby the white girl in the Tetons happen?
