Following yet another fatal shooting by law enforcement in broad daylight, the streets are full of protesters while social media is aflame with horrifying videos.
Being overlooked is the violence being brought by local law enforcement.
Ruiz’s killing is a painful reminder that state and local police have been left out of the conversation about violence and accountability.
Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway said, “Our community deserves full transparency and accountability,” and the killing is being investigated as a homicide.
The message should be clear: If America wants accountability from federal law enforcement, it is time to demand real accountability for police as well.
