An overzealous and improperly trained police officer is what lead to #TyreKing death https://t.co/TjZdQ8IMqX

Just watched a vid of the police chief and mayor, discussing #TyreKing. Both focused on gun control; neither even said his NAME. Bothers me.

This is Legend Preston.

And despite recent reforms, Baltimore PD use of force policy still fails to limit deadly force to being a last resort for officers.

— Samuel Sinyangwe (@samswey) August 10, 2016

DOJ report makes clear "broken windows" policing not only doesn't work, but also results in unconstitutional harassment and criminalization.

Then there's the use of excessive force against black residents. Absolutely no accountability within Baltimore PD. pic.twitter.com/nvieK8eb6c
