Congresswoman Karen Bass and Dr. Everett Ward
BALTIMORE, MD Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. General President Dr. Everett B. Ward is urging the U.S. Senate to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2020 (H.R. 7120) after the officer-involved shooting deaths in Columbus, Ohio, of Casey Goodson, Jr., and Andre Maurice Hill.
 There is no holiday season for the assault and murder of African American men by police officersâ said Dr. Everett B. Ward. âThe freelance authority to assault and murder African American men must end.â
The call for an investigation into Officer Adam Coy comes after he fatally shot Hill early last Tuesday morning during a non-emergency call. Video released by the City of Columbus shows that Coy turned on his body camera only after the shots were fired. The body camera video shows at least six minutes passed before any aid was rendered to Hill who was unarmed.
