Sheriff Conway, stand up and face questions on teen’s shooting by police (Editorial) Syracuse.com 3/11/2021 Advance Media NY Editorial Board, syracuse.com
Onondaga County Sheriff Eugene Conway has been elected twice to that office. He needs to answer to the public more than every four years. Now would be a good time.
Conway’s department was part of a law enforcement contingent responding March 4 to a call from a Jamesville family about their teenage son’s mental health crisis. The incident ended with 17-year-old Judson Albahm dead of multiple gunshots, after officers said the teen pointed what looked like a gun at them. It turned out to be an air gun.
