We need to hold racist officer accountable for perjury!

The Issue

Police are not just killing people in the streets, they are killing people in the court rooms. This Amherst police officer Thomas Brown was motivated by racism and he fabricated evidence, and testimony. This subsequently resulted in a man named Keyontay Ricks being sentenced to 20 years for crimes which never occurred. Keyontay served almost 13 years before he was halfway exonerated. The officer again committed perjury in 2019 to give the judge reason to uphold an illegal wrongful conviction. Officers need to be held accountable for breaking the law.
