We had to go to the State House in Boston, Massachusetts in Protest!
The Issue
On Sunday May 31st, I had to go to the State House in Boston, Massachusetts in Protest for the senseless loss of George Floyd. And because I personally know this type of loss. On September 22, 2011, my precious nephew, Timothy Martin Shaw III was found floating in the Anacostia River in Washington, DC. However, Timothy was chased into the River by park and DC police on September 7, 2011.
Our family was never told why they were chasing Timothy, and why there were no attempts to recuse Timothy when he went into the river on September 7, 2011. Rest in Heaven, Timothy and George!
When our family attempted to find out what happened to Timothy. We were faced with resistance, disregard, and disrespect from the DC detectives on Timothy's case. We were never able to get the police reports from September 7th, the day Timothy went into the Anacostia River. Under the Freedom of Information Act, we have a right to the police report, and a right to know.
Please help our Family uncover Justice for Timothy, and reveal another brutality perpetrated by those "sworn to serve and protect".
I can't breathe,I'm drowning!
Park and DC police; Let us Breathe, and have closure to our Family loss.
