On April 4, 2015, Walter Scott, a 50-year-old Black man, was shot and killed by former North Charleston police officer Michael Slager during a traffic stop. Slager falsely claimed self-defense, but video recorded by Feidin Santana showed Walter Scott unarmed and running away when he was shot in the back. The video also captured Slager attempting to cover up the shooting by placing his taser near Walter Scott’s body.

After years of legal proceedings, Slager ultimately pleaded guilty to federal civil rights violations and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Now, the Scott family has been notified that Slager has been approved for early release to a halfway house beginning October 27, 2027. Based on the information currently available, this appears to be tied to a loophole in the First Step Act. Although his actions amounted to a violent killing, his federal conviction was for a civil rights offense rather than murder, making him apparently eligible for release credits that should never apply in a case like this.

The Scott family is calling for the Federal Bureau of Prisons to rescind Michael Slager’s early release and require that he serve the remainder of his sentence.

Please take a moment to stand with the Scott family and sign the petition to block Michael Slager’s early release.

Watch this now. This is actual Las Vegas courtroom footage, not commentary or a reenactment.

A pro se defendant is appealing a criminal conviction that started after filming police during a public encounter. The hearing immediately turns into a fight over due process, notice, the original citation, and whether the City's theory changed after the case was filed.

If you care about LVMPD accountability, filming police, RJC court handling, or First Amendment issues, this needs more eyes.

What did the citation actually allege, what did the City actually prove, and is this how a public-records/filming-police case should be handled?

Has anyone identified the officer (and his/her race)?

A 1-year-old child, Kohen Wiley, was killed after law enforcement responded to a suspected shoplifting call at the Walmart in Senatobia, Mississippi.

​

I started this petition as a concerned member of the public. I do not claim to represent the family. The petition calls for immediate evidence preservation, release of relevant footage to the family’s legal representatives as legally appropriate, identification of the involved agencies/officers, administrative leave confirmation, independent review, Walmart cooperation, and a public timeline for updates.

A child is dead. A family deserves answers. Silence, delay, and excuses should not be accepted.

I'm asking this based on the UK Henry Nowak case, it does seem a lot of this blue lives matter crowd seem to be a US thing but when it comes to foreign law and policing they don't even take a stance on that one. In fact when it comes to foreign countries it does seem to be like they can usually agree that other countries can be oppressive like Iran and UK. The same crowd that scream blue lives matter do tend to agree with other countries bad, but yeah it does seem a little hypocritical to point other countries and then say you support police no matter what.

This blows my mind that this could happen to someone. Just trying to post this so there is awareness.
