Assemblymember Lunsford: The fight for Justice Continues in Wake of Grand Jury Decision
February 23, 2021
“Daniel Prude’s death was a horrific tragedy that shook our community to its core and led to long overdue conversations about policing, race and mental health across our country. Today’s grand jury decision does not end the fight for reform, justice and Black Lives. It also does not change the fact that Daniel Prude should be alive today. I applaud the Attorney General’s calls to action today. We cannot meet this moment with platitudes and prayers. We must act to ensure that Daniel’s legacy will live on through the real changes to ensure that tragedies like this never happen again.”
