Family,
On the same day that the Department of Justice failed to indict Christopher Manney [Tuesday November 10th], Milwaukee Police Chief, Edward Flynn announced that he was seeking a collaborative reform initiative with the U.S. Department of Justice. His request, which is still pending, will not be granted if the Civl Rights Division is considering a pattern-and-practice investigation into the Milwaukee Police Department.
Several of years ago federal authorities began researching whether or not the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division should sue the Milwaukee Police Department for their history of racial profiling, searches and seizures without probable cause, the targeting of minority populations for harassment, and excessive use of force.
In response to Flynn’s fast request that has the potential to be approved, we want to call-in to call-out his move to dodge the pattern-and-practice investigation. We can do this by fire storming the offices of the Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the US Attorney General Gregory Haanstad with calls, letters, emails, and petitions requesting the immediate initiation of such an investigation, in light of persistent abuses resulting in injury, violations, and death of Milwaukee citizens at the hands of Milwaukee police officers.
