Kadir Skinner: A Family Demands Answers
Description
A 19-year-old man, Kadir Skinner, was fatally shot in a police encounter that’s sparking national outrage. His family demands an independent investigation, citing unanswered questions: was he shot from behind? Why was he cuffed and placed in a police car after being hit? Police claim he was armed and fled, but haven’t clarified if he was still running when shot. His father says he was pepper-sprayed when identifying himself and hasn’t seen his son’s body. Community leaders, including a city councilwoman, are pushing for transparency and accountability, especially since the officer involved has a troubling local reputation. Videos show officers collecting shell casings—an unusual move—fueling suspicion. With police refusing to release more details, the call for an Attorney General’s probe grows louder as the community waits for justice.
