"This officer has now been involved in a second police related shooting death while working for the Wauwatosa Police Department," said Jonathan Safran, the Anderson family attorney.
Safran says the officer who killed Anderson was also involved in a fatal shooting in July 2015.
A 29-year-old man was killed after Wauwatosa police say he confronted them with a sword.

"I'm a little concerned that an officer would go back on the job relatively quickly and be in a one-man squad and now get involved with another individual," said Safran.
11 months later, Anderson was killed. Now, newly enhanced dash cam footage from that incident is shown to his family.
"Some of it, again, is very difficult to see because of the distance from the squad car dash cam," said Safran.
In response to the enhanced footage, Wauwatosa police sent FOX6 News this statement:

The Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office says they've had several meetings with Anderson's family and their lawyers sowing them access to all of the evidence in their possession. There is currently no time frame on a charging decision.
The officer in question was cleared in the 2015 shooting.
