May 3, 2021 —

Jumeka Reed, the sister of 40-year-old James Scott Reed, who was killed by KPD SWAT Team during a no-knock warrant at his home, spoke during public forum.

“I’m not against the police, but I am all about reform,” Jumeka Reed said. She added that there needs to be a clearer description of the violent criminals that these warrants need to be used against because the police were told her brother had a gun but she is pretty sure most people have a gun in their home for protection.
