Cop accused of killing driver out of jail, free on bond
Kevin Grasha and Sharon Coolidge, The Cincinnati Enquirer 7:15 p.m. EDT July 30, 2015
CINCINNATI — A former University of Cincinnati police officer charged with murder in the shooting death of a man he pulled over for a missing front license plate pleaded not guilty in court Thursday and was out of jail on bond less than eight hours later.
Ray Tensing, 25, killed Samuel DuBose, 43, on July 19 as the unarmed black man delayed producing his driver's license during the traffic stop near the university's campus. Judge Megan Shanahan of Hamilton County Common Pleas Court set Tensing's bond at $1 million during the arraignment as Tensing bowed his head, closed his eyes and never looked at anyone.

Afterward, Tensing's lawyer, Stewart Mathews, said he would do his best to raise the money to get his client out of jail Thursday, and Tensing left the Hamilton County jail hours later after spending the night behind bars. Anyone can post 10% of a $1 million bond, an amount that can be raised through a lien on a house.
