Charge Ronald Ritchie with the death of John Crawford III and Angela Williams

The Issue

The truth is, the blance of justice gets tilted when race (color) takes the lead on how justice is defined. And although the police involved in the shooting and death of Mr. Crawford has been deemed "jusitifed" by a grand jury, it does not negate the fact that this man was not carrying a weapon and posed no "real" threat to the patrons of Walmart nor the police responding to the call. So with that said and to be as brief as possible, Ronald Ritchie called the police and reported a "false" threat. Ronald Ritchie lied to police dispatch about Mr. Crawford waving and pointing a weapon. This lie is what caused the deaths of John Crawford and Angela Williams, who die from heart failure due to the events that took place, even if you want to believe that the officers in question "did no wrong". And since this is the case as it should have been in the beginning. The person that made this call (Ronald Ritchie) is responsible for the death of Mr. Crawford and Angela Williams, and should be held accountable for his actions. That would be #Justice4John
