Nice piece. After seeing the reaction to the George Floyd video, where we get a worldwide phenomenon of recognition of examples reported before, only because their own eyes can see it.--this is obviously the kind of journalism that's needed to continue with the polity being informed on what they really want out of police reform--up close and personal human interest, as opposed to the theoretical, the dry policy and stats. Even "just the facts,, ma'am" Jack Webb style doesn't seem to work for a lot of people. It's got to be like a novel.

Even more, it's this kind of journalistic story that humanizes all the different sides. And there are at least a hundred or so of them.
It also gives a glimmer to the "defund police" dullness ... rather than a totally misunderstood idea put forward in perhaps the clumsiest way possible, it provides an example of how money can be perhaps better spent within the force.
