Calls for justice for
Atatiana Jefferson have increasingly focused on the lack of a trial date for the man who murdered her nearly two years ago former Fort Worth police officer
Aaron Dean. Jefferson was playing video games with her nephew when Dean shot her through the back window of her and her mother’s house.
The resumption of criminal trials for officers who shot and killed unarmed Black civilians in other states (most notably the guilty verdict of now-incarcerated former Minneapolis police officer
Derek Chauvin) has all but ended any remaining excuses for why Dean should not face trial soon.
The post looks like a sick joke. Beneath a picture of the Tim Curry Criminal Justice Center downtown, y’know, that place where all kinds of “justice” happens, the official Tarrant Count account makes an announcement: “FREE COVID-19 Vaccines.” Sounds reasonable. Who wouldn’t want a free vaccine? (Don’t answer that.)
