CIW op-ed in the Naples Daily News: "We as a community can— and must — recognize the injustice of Nicolas Morales's death and honor his life by implementing the long-overdue reforms necessary to ensure that no son or daughter of Collier County suffers that same incalculable loss [as Nicolas Jr.] ever again."
CIW, allies call on Citizens Review Panel to step up as "the voice — and the conscience — of the community" at upcoming December 1st meeting
On Sunday, the CIW published an op-ed in the Naples Daily News in our continuing efforts to secure justice for Nicolas Morales, an Immokalee farmworker who was killed by Collier County deputies in September 2020. On December 1st, a Citizen's Review Panel (CRP) will convene to review the case. In the opinion piece, we urge the CRP to include the CIW’s detailed, second-by second analysis of the dash cam video of Nicolas’s shooting in their review and to carry out an open and honest examination of the officers’ actions that night.
We have reposted the full op-ed over on the CIW site today, linked below.
If you live in the Southwest Florida area — and you refuse to stand by while a fellow human being, a father and widower, is cut down needlessly in yet another senseless police killing — please join us tonight, Wednesday, December 1st, at the Community Review Panel’s public meeting in Naples at 5:30 pm at the Professional Development Center (PDC) located at 615 3rd Avenue South, Naples, Florida. |
