Justice for Gordon Whitaker

The Issue

In February 2020 45-year old Gordon Whitaker was murdered by Kennewick Police officers Becca Henry, Zach Moore, Dylan Markley. Gordon was walking to the store and at the time he was approached by these three officers. He was shot 6 times in the back while Becca Henry held him down. The family has not been provided with any body cam evidence as they say there wasn’t any nor have they received any answers as to why lethal force was needed to be used on a man who had already been detained. All three officers were put on paid administrative lead following the incident, but were later put back on duty. Real justice has never been served for Gordon or his family.

This petition is calling for the immediate and permanent removal of these three officers (Becca Henry, Zach Moore, and Dylan Markley) from the Kennewick Police force, as well as Benton County Prosecuting Attorney Andy Miller to press appropriate charges for the murder of Gordon Whitaker.

Gordon is survived by his wife, LaBelle, and his eight children. Please sign to get them the justice they deserve.
