JUSTICE FOR THE MISSISSIPPI GOON SQUAD DEPUTIES

Black Lawyers for Justice is a leading legal and political organizing movement that fights police brutality in many ways. Currently we are fighting to get the Rankin County Mississippi Goon Squad Sentenced for their severe crimes if police torture on Eddie Parker and attempting to kill Michael Jenkins on January 23, 2023

We are minimizing residents of the State of Mississippi and members of the American public to be present at sentencing and to organize for real, stiff sentences.

Deputies Hunter Elward; Jeffrey Middleton; Christian Dedmon; Daniel Opdyke; Joshua Hartfield; Brett McAlpin will be sentenced in U.S District Court in Jackson Mississippi on March 19,20 and 21 2024.

The viscous, racist and violent acts these defendants engaged in, including, the torture, waterboarding, sexual and physical abuse and attempted murder suffered by Michael Jenkins and Eddie Parker represent the absolute worst conduct by law enforcement in America.

We organizing persons to attend the sentencing hearings from all over the nation. We are organizing to petition The Court to send the strongest message to law enforcement all over America that these criminal acts by these defendants, committed under the color of law, will be met with the severest of penalties.

The African-American population of Mississippi has traditionally been subjected to innumerable injustices of historical proportions in this state.

This is the first time in Mississippi History that any Caucasian police officer(s) have ever been held criminally liable for criminal offenses against the Black population.

The horrific facts that the defendants pled guilty to justify the claim that the criminal melee of January 23, 2023 was “the worst events of police brutality in American history.”
