Protester files lawsuit against LAPD uncle who ordered cop to shoot him during demonstration
“That just speaks volumes to the complete lack of any kind of moral character, and what happens when people become police … They are willing to even sacrifice their own family in order to advance the interests of a police state.”
This week,
Jamal Shakir Jr. filed a complaint against his uncle, a Los Angeles Police Department officer, who he claims ordered another officer to shoot him.
Last year, the 23-year-old filmmaker took part in the
George Floyd protests that took place all over downtown Los Angeles last summer and at one point allegedly urged some of the officers at the scene to take part in the demonstrations.
