When we met commit the allston in july it had been just over 2 years since her son 22 year old marquiss was shot and killed by police in washington d. C. How did you find out about what happened. Was headed to dinner and i got a call from one of mark he says friends and. As soon as i answered i heard the pentagon on the phone. And so i said whats wrong. And she said mark he says been shot. And i said ok what hospital are we going to because of course i thought positive. And she said were not going to the hospital hes gone. I got home and of course on the 10 oclock news it was there police have been on scene here for hours they tell us the shooting happened just after 7 oclock investigators say a group of guys were out in that alley when officers approached them thats when shots were fired i had not been notified. I didnt sleep that night. So i was just waiting for them to come. And they didnt get there until. About 2 oclock pm the next day. What is it been like for you to get answers about what happened that night its been. An agonizing traumatizing disheartening. Dreadful. Ive just been trying to get simple questions. What would it initially took place to cause this to happen. I want to show you where it has the d. C. Police Department Said that officers were on patrol on the approach marquis though initially it was unclear why when officers entered the back alley there was a group of adult males one of the adult males produced a weapon there were shots fired but witnesses at the scene disputed the police account. It was. Shot multiple times. Report the gunshot wounds and stated if the gunshot wounds were repetitive. They would not individually list them so i cant even count. The total of gunshot wound.

As shes fall prancer committee has also had to relive her loss when another black person is killed by police in the u. S. Each time. I hear a life lost due to the polies. Brings forth so much anxiety so much pain. And i say here we go again. Here we go again. With. The. The the complete leak. In the it was a horrific killing of george floyd on may 25th captured on cell phone by a bystander where he repeatedly told the police he couldnt breathe but sparked the protest thats why i feel. The law. Because if youre going to get me or anyone telling. Me the question now is will this be different people. Are tired. Just to realize that we have a whole generation of people who will die hard time just heard almost every week another black person killed another aspect. I came imagine what that does to psyche to grow up were over half your life is just another black body killed on the street another black by the slain i love the black person killed by choke and you know by say my cape very like tracy wright is one of the thousands of people that took to the streets in d. C. In the protest after george point the scale plastic that may be deployed with shields and tear gas as the protests grew and police were more aggressive each day when i bust open leave someone how it was all over the body got teargassed purpose prairie and after they eyes were flushed out they went right back out to the front and that energy to me was just so raw and so sort and. I am president of law and order and an ally of all peaceful protesters. On june 1st one week after the killing of george floyd and just after the president delivered these remarks. Police began to clear protesters from in front of the white house. The police did this for President Trump who wanted to take a photo at the church across from the white house. After the violent clearing up the park that day the president flooded the streets of d. C. Discours the federal forces without police but 2 weeks later and as the protests continued the president took a slightly different approach signing an executive order and urging Police Departments station wide to adopt the highest professional standards to serve their communities the standards will be as high and as strong as there is on earth the executive order called for the creation of a nationwide database to track excessive use of force by Police Officers and for Police Departments to adopt better practices but it was unclear what tangible impact the order would really have. Even then it was still a change and how trampas approach policing since he took office by moving away from Police Reform efforts of the Obama Administration. Those reforms were sparked during another reckoning on Police Violence in the u. S. In the wake of the killing of 18 year old Michael Brown in ferguson missouri and 2014. Sort of like people who were used to being bullied for many years suddenly started to stand up for themselves just in hansford live 10 minutes from ferguson at the time working as a law professor people were excited people were happy he was a legal observer and one of thousands of people who took to the streets then even in the face of a heavy militarized response from the police. Ferguson was the spark i think weve had a long history of responding to Police Violence was. A ferguson was the 1st time were people who didnt just take to the streets in protest but but they actually had to bring out tanks because they saw that people were going to take it to the next level. 0. 0000000000000000 it was in the aftermath of this that the department of justice under the Obama Administration began to ramp up efforts to reform policing in the United States. One part of that was increasing investigations into Police Departments including purpose and this was about the death of Michael Brown but not only about the death of Michael BrownJonathan Smith was on the justice departments team that conducted a civil rights investigation into the Ferguson Police department and so we went into ferguson to try to understand what was happening the community the operation of its Police Department the effect of the police to work on the community and whether the Police Report was engaging in patterns of violations of the costs which. Among the findings of their investigation was that the Ferguson Police department disproportionately use force against the black community. While everybody looked like me got to be a criminal. Is no on in effect. I guess the rain on the daily give us a respite to go every day for people who live in myself included a lot of these blackmail free riders are under our losses that is true and that the police along with local officials systematically targeted black residents with tickets and finds as a way to make money for the city. Africanamericans were targeted. Hurt by the Police Department brought into the court system and their pockets would be continued to be drained sort of almost in perpetuity were you surprised by any of your findings and ferguson i wasnt i mean i had by the time that we investigated the Ferguson Police department with there was in the last research that was about the 20th i think it was the 20th investigation that we conducted a Police Departments across the country and investigations like this were one of the central components of the Obama Administrations Police Reform effort you know we knew that as you we looked across the country that there was a serious and deep problem and a core almost of all of them was a failure of Police Departments to be accountable internally so that officers who engaged misconduct were held in account to account and that the partners themselves were all held accountable to their communities oh my god oh god. That was. The ferguson report did do a lot to help people to really come to grips with what the protesters were saying from day one we had been telling people that there was racial profiling but they didnt believe it until they saw the d. O. J. Report. But the Obama Administrations Police Reform went beyond investigation funding and grants were issued for initiatives like body camera to increase transparency last year the about ferguson and a task force convened making a number of recommendations to improve policing in the u. S. Specifically by focusing on Community Relations and having Police Officers undergo training. But now 6 years after ferguson the country faces yet another reckoning in minneapolis where george freud was killed there have been. Calls for the trumpet ministration to investigate the Police Department. But they have to do so were going to probably reacting to this and since right immediately putting the department under investigation doesnt necessarily results in improving the situation but on this was consistent with the attorney generals previous Public Comments saying that the problem is only a few rogue officers and that theres no systemic racism in policing and not. The trumpet ministration has largely stopped federal investigations into Police Departments the more fundamental problem is in the structure of policing and the culture of policing i mean what happened to george floyd is a very good example of that you had not one officer engage in misconduct but you had officers that were bystanders that didnt intervene to prevent that from happening. In minneapolis raises another question though does reform work. More than a year before george floyd was killed the city had put all of its Police Officers through trainings on implicit bias. And nationally Police Killings did not go down in the years after ferguson and the obama era reform efforts. Were going to see 5 or 6 years later we have cities Like Washington d. C. The city. Where there are plenty of body camera. Youve got all these different rules and regulations in place but these are all things that can be manipulated and. Body cameras were a key part of both local and federal reform with the goal of increasing transparency but even not has come a challenge as profamily. For you in your sons case what has it been like trying to get access to the camp but its. What they initially told me to do we submitted their request only for them to back to say markey needed to submit the request says he was involved in the body. Then responded to. Make the request so thats why his mother is making the request she was finally able to see some of the footage in august of last year but not all of it and even then she says it was heavily edited. Ration of what they depicted happened. Which included some power points it was a package edited version 5 minutes what we saw. Good morning this message is for mr. After we interviewed her received a voicemail from d. C. Police department will be releasing that particular footage of the. Car. And what you know it will be. The footage was released publicly before can see it. In the Footage Police begin the interaction with mark east by jumping out of their car and running after him. Because the audio is not turned on until later we dont know why they went after him. I dont know which they claim they saw the outline of a gun in his pocket and that marquees shot 1st before the officers repeatedly shot him. The metropolitan Police Department declined our request for an interview. In a statement miss alstons lawyers that the footage does not show fired a gun or that the object in his hand was one. Without the audio key details are still missing and they give me everything i have Everything Police made the video public along with footage from the deaths of 2 other black men but they were only released because of a new city legislation that. Acquires them to release body camera footage and battle shooting. It was passed in june in response to the latest wave of protests. But people on the street part calling for more reform legislation nobody was holding up signs saying warm body cameras for police more money for Police Training right thats how they got out of the last crisis was with more money and more resources body cameras in the training and all that but none of these directly address the sort of goal of policing and the substandard outcomes of policing. The lack of success or performances turn the National Conversation to one local activists have been advocating for years. Defunding Police Departments on the path to eliminating them completely abolition. They want to cut Police Budgets and the number of officers patrolling and often surveilling their communities and redirect that money to Health Care Education and housing. We have been following a lot of money into Police Reform thats not actually keeping anyone in more safe i have no faith in the institution that needs to be reminded not to choke me we met with a group of d. C. Organizers and one of the most policed areas of the city what has happened over the years is that the police have become the place where people call for everything like we are creating work for police that not only does the police not to do that nobody nobody needs to do that work nobody has to be out there criminalizing being homeless is they need homes nobody needs to be trail izing people who are dispersed enjoy addition they need health care what would abolishing the police mean and look like to me that looks like knowing where i can get food and water that looks like having safe housing all the time that looks like being able to stand outside and not worry about being literally so. Veiled in terror existing. In any other war you have multiple choice. And over here we dont actually have no place to give birth theres no war over here is the ever and not the type of thing that like literally doesnt keep you safe like when i think about even. Thinking about getting pregnant while this is dangerous over here as a black woman when i have a 13 year old to tell me that. He took the ladys purse because. His mother had no food in the house to feed his troops were you given the resources and community. Still in the purse he could be a Recreation Center which would lead. D. C. s mayor has said that cutting the Police Budget will make the city last but that doesnt feel true for some residents we just had 11. Murders kill. It was a policeman in there. And he still got shot and therefore you cant tell me that a police couldve kept safe dont work this mental one is what works and invested in black communities and resources that keep us a. Mothers arms a sister says we are at a moment of reckoning in america as the summer came to an end and as protests continued yet another black person was shot by police just within these past several days we have seen the attempted murder of jacob lake in wisconsin jacob blake was shot 7 times in the back at point blank range. It happened just 5 days before thousands of people gathered in the u. S. Capitol to mark the anniversary of the historic march on washington in 1963 and as they continued to demand justice and change. To.
