"The body camera footage released today by Attorney General James is incredibly disturbing and confirms what we knew— the NYPD responded to a call for mental health help from Win Rozario with immediate escalation and deadly force, shooting him despite the pleas of his mother and the lack of any real justification.

Now the question remains--will the administration provide any real consequences or accountability? "Ask Kawasaki Trawick’s family."
