John, if you’ve
ever wondered exactly how much power a District Attorney has when it comes
to criminal legal reform, Tyre Nichols’ case is a great example.

In 2022, we helped elect Steve Mulroy as District Attorney of Shelby
County in Tennessee. And he has been instrumental in seeking justice in
Tyre Nichols’ death.

So far, DA Mulroy has charged five officers who beat Tyre to death with
murder, and 8 more officers will also be facing charges. This is why
integrity, civil rights-minded and justice-seeking are the values that we
look for in DAs across this country.

Our latest endorsement, Arlington and Falls Church Commonwealth’s Attorney
Parisa Dehghani-Tafti, shares these same values in office and has made a
huge impact in Virginia. And she is facing strong opposition so we need
your help to make sure she remains in that seat.

sure she can keep holding police accountable for violence and misconduct.

Like DA Mulroy, Parisa has focused on police accountability ever since
taking office. Within 18 months of being sworn in, Parisa had a Critical
Incident Response Team and a Community Oversight Board in the works to
independently review and investigate police when they use force. These are
both firsts in her community.

This is crucial to stopping police violence before it happens by reducing
the sense of impunity that so often leads to cops acting so violently. And
also by making sure that police are held accountable when they do commit
violence and misconduct.

DA Mulroy did what others referred to as “incredibly rare” and charged the
officers involved in brutalizing Tyre with second degree murder within
weeks of the incident. For way too long, DAs would cover up instances of
police misconduct and shield officers from accountability.

We saw that with DA Jackie Johnson in Ahmaud Arbery’s case — where she
refused to charge his killers because she was friends with them. But DA
Mulroy has shown what happens when we elect DAs who take the necessary
steps to hold violent cops accountable.

And Parisa has done so much to contribute to that work for accountability
in Arlington and Falls Church, VA and, because of that, conservatives are
spending BIG money to take her seat and rescind all the progress she’s
made.

We cannot let that happen. We know that we need DAs like Parisa everywhere
to implement progressive policies that demand due process, justice and
accountability. 

[ [link removed] ]We need to defend our bold justice-minded leaders like Parisa while
also working to elect more DAs like Parisa and Steve all across this
country. Will you split a donation today between Parisa’s campaign and
Real Justice to support her re-election bid and fund our work in helping
elect change-agents nationwide?

Gratefully,

Real Justice
