Minneapolis, MN: The Unsurprising Outcome of Defunding the Police
Minneapolis: Last week, Davis Moturi, a black man, was shot to death while working in his yard. His neighbor, John Sawchack, a white man, was arrested for the killing. The shooting happened after Moturi had reported harassment for over a year and called the police 19 times. Moturi was told by a female police commander that her officers were frightened of Sawchack and she did not want to put her officers at risk. Social workers and a psychiatrist were used to try to de-escalate the situation.
