the night off. a year and a half after brandon ellingson drowned in the lake of the ozarks, charges are filed against a missouri state trooper who had him in custody. jack: the 20 year old was boating with friends in 2014, when he was arrested on suspicion of boating while intoxicated. trooper anthony piercy was taking ellingson back to shore and did not properly put a life jacket on him, when he fell into the water. piercy couldn't save him and he drowned. jack: local 5's jacob peklo sat down tonight with brandon's father, who says despite this arrest, there's still more work to be done to find justice for his son. jacob's here with more in tonight's big story. jacob: jack, it's been a roller coaster year and half for brandon's father....craig ellingson... and his family. today, the state trooper, anthony piercy, turned himself in to authorities. family members feel it's the first step toward justice, but more work needs to be done to fix the lingering problems inside

state patrol...to ensure that this never happens to anyone else. craig ellingson, brandon's father: "just hugging him. just saying i love you. we used to say that a lot." eighteen months have done little to dull the pain for craig ellingson. natural sound: "here's some of his football stuff." the memories and frozen images of his son brandon... still life today, as they twenty years. craig ellingson, mean, i go by his room every day and i've still pretty much in my office, pretty much all his accolades and stuff like that." even with the announcement friday that a missouri state trooper was turning himself in to authorities for his role in brandon's death in may of 20-14, ellingson says the battle he and his family have been fighting for so long, is still far from over. craig ellingson, brandon's father: "so, it's the start of justice for brandon." he says the whistle blowing of retired trooper randy henry helped balance out the testimony, which the family felt was unfairly stacked against brandon. nov. 25/randy henry, retired trooper: "i said, 'tony, i was going to support you through all this, but i said, you're lying to me. i said, 'we're done, i'm not going to support you at all, you killed this kid and now you're lying about it. you're not very remorseful if

craig ellingson, brandon's father: "they were afraid he was going to muddy up the water because he wasn't going to tell....he was going to tell the truth. they didn't want the murros talking, who were actually witnesses out on the water, they wouldn't let any of the girls talk." it's a tragedy he felt could have easily been avoided. craig ellingson, brandon's father: "and i think brandon felt safe with that cop because he was a cop, and you know, serve and protect. you know, he's going to take care of me and he was going to get fined and that was going to be it, and he was going to be free to go." ellingson says there have been some changes to the way missouri does business with its water patrols like taking part-timers off patrols, but still believes the responsibility falls on those in the state capitol, who he says approved a system desperately lacking accountability in training and execution of daily assignments. craig ellingson, brandon's father: "i believe this goes all the way up to nixon. he knows what happened and he's one of the reasons that brandon's not here." jacob: ellingson says

facing the manslaughter charges, it will likely change the civil case against the state patrol. peklo, local five iowa. jack ellingson was his degree at arizona state university by next spring. his dad says the plan was to have brandon join the real estate business with him. but now those plans won't ever happen. local 5 has been covring this story for more head to our website, we are iowa dot com, for all of our coverage. jack: evolution night club is closed again tonight, after they failed to get their liquor license back today. the license was revoked in november after a long list of fights and noise complaints were filed by neighbors. the most recent incident was the worst. the fatal shooting of 20 year old dashawn smith outside of the nightclub on november 8. the nightclub made an appeal following the liquor license suspension, but the appeal was dismissed. local 5 stopped by the nightclub
