Outrage and Justice Sought for 9-Year-Old Girl Killed in Drive-By Shooting

A 9-year-old girl was killed in a drive-by shooting in Mobile, Alabama, prompting Mobile Police Sgt. John Young to express frustration over the lack of outrage and focus on police accountability measures rather than addressing the root causes of such violence. Young emphasized the importance of parental responsibility and called for a shift in the national narrative, highlighting the need for families to take responsibility for preventing gun violence. Young's group, Men United Against Violence in Mobile, plans to launch a messaging campaign to change hearts and minds and encourage fathers to be present in their homes.

Jawan Dallas Family Demands Justice After Viewing Police Body Cam Footage

The family of Jawan Dallas, who was killed by Mobile police in July, has criticized the police department after viewing body camera footage of the incident. They claim that Dallas was repeatedly tased and begged for his life, saying, "I cannot breathe" and "I do not want to be George Floyd." The family's attorney called for the release of the footage to provide transparency and ensure accountability. The police department maintains that Dallas died due to health factors and drug use, and a grand jury cleared the officers of any wrongdoing. The family plans to file a civil lawsuit against the city.
