DOJ just released the report from its two-year investigation of the Minneapolis police department.
Here's a thread of notable excerpts.
This first one happened *while a DOJ investigator was on a ride-along.*
Just got this message from Michael Richie, a friend of Radical Hope Project who was released from prison last year. So happy he is back on his feet and doing so well! #reentry #prison #incarcerated
ALT I sorry got busy but Thank you for helping me save my life
What happened to Jordan Neely was murder.
It is a continuation of the history of lynchings perpetrated by hyper aggressive white males.
No one suffering mental anguish should have to fear that they’ll be murdered as well.
RHP stands FOR Jordan Neely because he was murdered.
A police officer in Fairfax County, Virginia murdered an unarmed Black man over a mere allegation of stealing a pair of sunglasses. The grand jury, in which only police investigators were allowed to present evidence, just decided to not indict. The system is working as planned.

This #TransDayOfVisibility, I'm asking everyone to lift up my beautiful baby sister Layleen Polanco, who died of a seizure in solitary confinement at Rikers.
We cannot allow @GovKathyHochul to gut the bail laws so more families suffer like mine has.
My statement.
A client of ours in MD has been put somewhere he can only make calls “once very 30 days”. I’m assuming he’s in solitary, but they won’t tell his wife if he is okay. Does anyone have any insight on what they’re supposed to tell family when someone is unable to reach them?
A 71 year old deaf woman was taken to jail on suspicion of trespassing. Upon intake, they ripped her clothes off, took her wedding ring, and broke her arm. Think about the culture that would foster cruelty this detached from a person’s basic humanity. austinchronicle.com/news/202…
