After investigating the second incident in 2016, the district attorney’s office ruled that Officer Mensah was justified. The United States Attorney’s Office for Eastern Wisconsin also reviewed the case for potential civil rights violations—and found none.  As reported by the ''Milwaukee Journal Sentinel'', officials from the U.S. Department of Justice said, “there are a number of pieces of evidence that corroborate Mensah’s version of the events leading to the shooting. The [[DOJ]] said police found the gun on the front passenger seat and that Anderson’s DNA was later found on the gun”—and that the individual “kept reaching for it despite the officer’s command not to do so.”

The third incident was ruled justifiable.  Mensah was forced to shoot 17-year old Alvin Cole after he fired a shot with a stolen gun and refused to drop the weapon.  County District Attorney John Chisholm concluded that the shooting of the armed suspect was lawful and reasonable.<ref>https://youtu.be/pznd9LAZPc8</ref> “He did not surrender the weapon and was fired upon by Officer Mensah causing his death,” Chisholm wrote. “There is sufficient evidence that Officer Mensah had an actual subjective belief that deadly force was necessary and that belief was objectively reasonable.” Members of the Wisconsin National Guard had been mobilized to Wauwatosa in advance of the prosecutor’s charging decision.
