Quick Calguns! Reference needed!

[perpetual otter]

I remember reading here somewhere where there was a court case that stated that police officers were not obligated to protect a citizens life. Can somebody point a reference to this?

Thanks!

Was it Castle Rock v. Gonzales?

It was from 2005, but I thought there was another case from the 1980's involving a murder in Washington, D.C.

-- EDIT --

Here's another decision from 1989, DeShaney v. Winnebago County
