In January 2023, multiple body-worn cameras were released of police horrifically repeatedly tasing my brother INSIDE an ambulance while he was coming out of a seizure and still confused not even knowing they were police or where he was per their own admission in their police reports, then removing him from the ambulance and walking him to their police car still confused, tasing him inside the police car, laughing about what they'd done, and then speaking with their sergeant as they tried to come up with a charge for him, because they'd been called out a medical call when a Burger King employee called 911 for medical attention after witnessing my brother experience a seizure in the drive-thru after coherently placing his order, which my brother's car to hit the truck in front of him in the drive-thru. I was devastated and angered at what I saw on that footage. Subsequently, the Judge ruled the officers lacked probable cause for their detention and arrest. My brother is the only son of five children. Later that year on November 9, 2023, four days before his birthday....my brother died. I was crushed. A few months later on March 5, 2024, my oldest nephew was violently murdered. I'd help raised him as a child because my youngest sister had him as a teenager. He was like my son to me. The road and journey of my life changed forever. And for Righteous Justice I will Forever STAND!! I look forward to serving you.
