On June 30th, Keith Wrede, a Colorado Springs sergeant commented “KILL THEM ALL” twice on a livestream of BLM protestors blocking the highway in Colorado Springs. 

Keith Wrede commented on the livestream under a pseudonym of “Steven Eric.” On the same livestream of BLM protestors, he also said “Solid move BLM way to make your point. I hope you are proud you damn Terrorist.” 

At the close of the Internal Affairs investigation on August 10th, Wrede was served his “discipline,” a 40-hour suspension ($2,044 in lost wages), removal from his specialized unit, and reassignment within the department.

THIS IS NOT ENOUGH.

We need to hold police officers accountable for their actions. We need to set a precedent within Colorado Springs law enforcement that people who hold racist and/or hateful biases are not suited to protect our community.  We need Keith Wrede fired from CSPD. A police officer who responds “KILL THEM ALL” to protestors is not someone fit to protect our community, they are a threat to our community. 

FIRE KEITH WREDE.
