After arriving at the Murry family home, police instructed everyone inside to come out with their hands up. Nakala Murry says that’s when Aderrien emerged from around a corner, running toward the door. Capers then opened fire.

    Dear lord, talk about victim blaming. They shot the kid because his mom and her boyfriend had domestic violence issues? FUCK THAT. The reason the kid was shot because ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS.

    IMO the most salient point of the article:

    Carlos Moore, the attorney representing the Murry family, told NPR that the court-filed petition is “outlandish” and suggests the move by the court is retaliation for her ongoing lawsuit against the City of Indianola over her son’s shooting.

    “I believe they are just harassing her,” Moore said. “She is a single mother and she does not deserve this pure harassment.”

      Without even opening the article, I’m going to guess this woman is a person of color.
