About the Creator

Thank you to Brenna Perez for giving the single clearest, smartest breakdown of the murder of Renee Nicole Good. This is clearly murder. Period. But as we’ve said for a generation, in America an officer just has to say “I feared for my life” to get away with murder. https://t.co/R6RvdQNN5a
