Black Lives Matter

Special Issue

Letter from the Editor, This is by far the toughest issue I had to put together. My heart is so incredibly heavy at all of these stories of lives lost to police brutality unnecessarily. Like Tamir Rice, 12 years old, within seconds the officer shot him dead mistaking his BB Gun for something else. SECONDS. I have a son who is 13 and one who is 11. How do I protect them in this world? Comply with officers? Freddie Gray seemed very complaint to me, sitting in the back of that transport vehicle yet still died due to injury to his spine. What about Keith Lamont Scott who was seen on video walking backward towards the cops with his hands at his side? Or Terrance Cutcher, who was last seen walking with his hands up not confronting, not arguing, not fighting? What does it take exactly to walk out of these situations alive? Chance? Luck? A different shade of skin? The most disturbing parts of these stories are the absence of accountability. Even in the case of Chandra Weaver who was killed after her Pontiac Grand Am was struck by a police vehicle. No charges. No charges???

Are officers now above the law? Is this the Wild Wild West? What’s really happening?

I admire and respect the (good) police officers who take their oath serious to protect and serve this nation. And I applaud all of the ones who are doing the amazing, incredible job that they do. The problem is not with ALL cops; the problem is with the system tolerating the bad ones and allowing them to continue to kill us without being held accountable. Let’s leave systematic injustices in 2016 and create a new way of life in 2017. For the sake of the children. -Chelle.

He isn’t following commands.” “It’s time for a taser, I think.” “I’m kind of thinking that’s about to happen. That looks like a bad dude, too, to be on something.”~2 minutes after the shot, an officer checked Crutcher’s pockets, ~45 seconds later someone crouched to offer aid.Police said Crutcher died in the hospital later that day.

Corey Jones

10/2015 Palm Beach Gardens, FL

On Sunday, October 18, 2015, at approximately 3:15 am, a plainclothes police officer in an unmarked white van with tinted windows wearing a T-shirt, jeans, and a baseball cap, stopped by what he said was an abandoned vehicle. The Palm Beach Gardens Police Officer, Nouman K. Raja, approached the car at the southbound exit ramp of Interstate 95 and PGA Boulevard.

Raja, on-duty doing burglary surveillance, said an armed subject confronted him, so he discharged his weapon and killed the man, later identified as Jones, a musician, and local housing authority worker.

In total, Raja discharged his weapon six times. He hit Jones with three shots. One bullet entered the side of Jones’ body, went through his aorta, killing him, and ended up in the top part of his torso, while the other bullets went through his body, hitting his left elbow and right shoulder. Jones’ arm was broken from the impact of one of the bullets. He had just turned 31 years old. Raja was not wearing a body camera, and his vehicle was not equipped with a camera. Jones, who was driving a Hyundai Santa Fe, had car trouble, had first called his brother, C.J. Jones, who offered to help him. Jones was due in church the next morning and needed his car, so he told his brother not to come pick him up. Jones’ bandmate, Huntsberger, came to help, bringing oil, but they were not able to get the car running. Jones called for a tow truck, and with that assurance, Huntsberger left. Jones had been returning home to Boynton Beach, Florida, after playing a show in Jupiter, Florida, at Johnny Mangos Tiki Bar & Grill. He had been playing with his band, the Future Prezidents. It was reported that Jones had been on the phone with AT&T roadside assistance when he was approached by the police officer. He had also called FHP, Florida Highway Patrol’s line for assistance, and AT&T #HELP multiple times trying to get help. Jones’ body was found a good distance – 80–100 feet – away from the vehicle, from which he appeared to have run. Jones had a .380-caliber gun, which he had purchased three days prior to the shooting, and for which he had a concealed carry license. The gun was found on the ground between Jones’ body and his car and had not been discharged.

On June 1, 2016, the officer who shot Jones, Nouman K. Raja, was charged with manslaughter and attempted murder.

Tamir Rice 11/2014 Cleveland, OH

Tamir was in a park playing with a BB gun. A caller reported that a male was pointing a pistol at random people, stating twice that the gun was "probably fake." Police pulled up within 10 feet from Tamir and shot him two seconds later in the abdomen. Neither officer administered first aid, instead of arresting Tamir's sister who rushed to his aid. Tamir didn't receive first aid until four minutes later from a deputy who was nearby. He died soon after.

He was 12 years old.

Darnell Stafford Trenton, NJ Police received a call that armed individuals had entered an abandoned house. When they knocked on the door, Cameron Tillman, a high school freshman and talented athlete with a 3.7 grade point average opened the door and was shot four or five times. The local sheriff said Cameron came to the door with a gun in his hand, but that was later changed to say a BB gun was found "in close proximity" to his body.

The teens say the BB gun was on the table.

Cameron was alive for at least 45 minutes, according to the family's lawyer.

But the police offered no medical assistance. The investigation is ongoing, but two months on, the four other boys in the house say they still haven't been interviewed.

He was 14 years old.

Shields was arrested by Metro Transit Police for failing to pay the $2 bus fare for his trip to the subway station. Officers on the scene reportedly pepper sprayed Shields before taking him into custody.

According to video footage obtained by Shields’ lawyer, Billy L. Ponds, Shields became unresponsive after a severe beating by guards.

Ponds explained that after guards had asked Shields what his name was, he did not answer them. The guards then became infuriated and started beating him. Shields was taken to the hospital, where he was later pronounced dead after he became medically distressed in the jail.

Aiyana Stanley-Jones 05/2010 Detroit, MI

Aiyana Stanley-Jones was a seven-year-old African-American girl from the east side of Detroit, Michigan who was shot and killed during a raid conducted by the Detroit Police Department's Special Response Team on May 16, 2010.[3] Her death drew national media attention[4] and led U.S. Representative John Conyers to ask U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder for a federal investigation into the incident. Officer Joseph Weekley was charged in connection with Jones' death. In October 2011, Weekley was charged with involuntary manslaughter and reckless endangerment with a gun. Weekley's first trial ended in a mistrial in June 2013. Weekley's retrial began in September 2014. On October 3, the judge dismissed the involuntary manslaughter charge against Weekley, leaving him on trial for only one charge: recklessly discharging a firearm. On October 10, the second trial ended in another mistrial. On January 28, 2015, a prosecutor cleared Weekley of the last remaining charge against him, ensuring there would not be a third trial.
