“We continue to welcome the support and assistance of true partners who wish to work together with us to achieve solutions that will improve the policies and practices of law enforcement,” Gasper said. The American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan filed the federal lawsuit against the Michigan State Police on behalf of a Black couple on Wednesday, arguing the agency has failed to review its own practices to address its disproportionate rates of pulling over African Americans. The case was filed on behalf of Camara Sankofa and Shanelle Thomas, who were pulled over in August 2019 and detained for nearly two hours in Oak Park while state troopers conducted a search of the couple and their vehicle. The officer who pulled Sankofa and Thomas over said they had run a red light, yet Sankofa, the driver, was issued no citation or ticket for a violation. The ACLU of Michigan shared a video of the couple and the traffic stop.
