Families Seek New Investigations Into Old Police Killings After Summer Of Protests

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING RICHMOND, Va. — One man died a decade ago after a police officer in New York state told him to move his illegally parked car. His last words echoed the ones used by Black men in similar circumstances and the chants at civil rights protests: “I can’t breathe.” The officers involved in the deaths of Danroy “DJ” Henry Jr., 20, Marcus-David Peters, 24, and Derrick Elliot Scott, 41, all were cleared of wrongdoing. Henry was fatally shot a year ago by police in Thornwood, N.Y. Boston Globe via Getty Images DANROY “DJ” HENRY JR. Pace University student DJ Henry had barely started his adult life on the day it ended, Oct. 17, 2010, after a police officer in a hamlet 30 miles north of New York City asked him to move his car out of a fire lane. The Henry family feels like the case had a dishonest ending based on “this false narrative they’ve had to apologize for,” Danroy Henry Sr. said. Her son, Derrick Elliot Scott, died in Oklahoma City on May 20, 2019, almost one year before George Floyd used those words with a police officer’s knee pressed on his neck, and five years after Eric Garner did while a New York City officer had him in a chokehold.
