Jalen mattered. Jalen matter.
Jalen manner. Jalen Martin
Jalen Randall.
Yeah, so often. After they
assassinate. Young black people.
Young brown people.
Miss Marie told and they then try
to assassinate. The character.
Of the person because they want
you to say that he was not worthy,
Reverend Criswell of consideration.
He wasn't worthy of humanity.
He wasn't worthy of respect.
Well, as we stand on sacred
ground in the House of God,
we say our children are worthy
of consideration. They are worthy
of respect. They are worthy of.
Respect. And so. We're
here because we believe that
the only way we can get to
justice is we first have the.
Get to the truth.
And the only way we get to the truth.
Is we have to have transparency?
And for the life of me.
Attorney here,
I can't understand why they
said take so long Mr Render
to release the video. The
video isn't going to change.
Well, what am I gonna
do? Charlie? What two months
gonna do other than give them an
opportunity to try to cover it up?
Get their story straight.
Well the facts are the facts.
Jalen Randall was shot from behind.
And we have scientific proof today.
With the results of our independent
autopsy that confirms Jalen
was shot from behind Trent,
running away from the police.
And. Reverend Chris
where when I was a little boy.
We learn playing Cowboys and robbers. That
the most cowardly thing you can do.
Is shoot a person in the back?
But why is it that the police continue
to cowardly shoot black men in the back,
not just here in the 5th world,
not just here in Houston, but
all across America. It seems to be Arthur
read that the most dangerous thing to
a police officer.
Is a black man running away?
I mean. How can you pose a
threat when you're running away?
I mean it just don't add up it.
Don't make no sense at all.
How was he such a danger running away from
you? Houston Police Department.
The evidence is clear. We have all topsy.
Completed by Doctor Jesse. Adami.
And it concludes. That he died.
From a penetrating shotgun wound.
Of the posterior neck.
That there were commuted fractures.
To his cervical vertebrae,
C6 and C7. And. Attorney.
And this anatomical model makes it clear.
Yeah, I will pull it over a little bit.
So this anatomical model makes it
clear it provides scientific evidence.
Their shows they shot.
Jason Randall I'm sorry Jalen Randall.
In the bag. Scientific proof that
they shot Jalen Randall in the back.
Miss Tiffany as he was running away.
And the autopsy couldn't
have been more direct than.
It is to the back of his neck.
It fractured his vertebrae between C6 and C7.
That to presume penetrating entry.
Was to the cervical spinal cord.
And that there were no exit wounds that
the bullet was lodged in his neck.
That caused his death.
It also. Reveals that the
bullet track. Was where his Mama
and his daddy. And everybody in the
community said from day one.
That it was from back to front.
That jalen. Was going away.
From the police when they shot.
And if so. Frustrating when they continue
to say they in fear of their life from.
And black and brown people running away.
I mean, we just see it over and over again.
Whether it's Terrence
Crutcher and Oklahoma City.
Whether it's. A mild outbreak,
I mean just over and over we see.
Black people running away from
them and they shoot us in the back.
And so. I wanted to make sure we had this
anatomical model so it was no question.
That he was shot from behind
because they're going to try to
continue to say all these things.
To try to justify. This unjustifiable.
Excessive use of force, but
let me be plain.
Mr Randa, there is no justification.
For shooting him from
behind, Miss Tiffany, they can't
offer anything. To justify.
While they kill little jailers, Dad. I mean,
he's going from behind. They don't
get the right to be the judge,
the jury and the executioner.
They don't get that right.
And so we're here demanding transparency. The
witnesses have said.
That he got out of the car and
was running away. We believe the body cameras
were all showing. And so
we're here, Miss Tolland, demanding.
Transparency we're here with
the community saying till the
Houston Police Department.
You don't need to say no Mo
just released the video. Don't
say no MO release the video.
Don't say no more.
Release the video. Don't say no MO.
Release the video.
Don't say no more.
Release the video. Don't say no Moe.
Release the video.
That's it, that's it.
We don't need anything else,
no more excuses, no more
explanations. Release the video.
You got the body Cam video we we heard
from witnesses after they shot Jaylen.
Miss Tiffany that the officer got the
car had the audacity to go put his
knee in the back of his neck area.
After he shot on the ground, bleeding.
Where we need to see that video?
Yes yes yes it's not lost on us Mr
Rounder that it's been almost two
weeks since April 27th around 3:00 PM,
when Jalen Rounder was shot
unnecessarily and unjustifiably.
And it's not lost on us that in about 2
weeks from now would be May 25th marking
the two year remembrance when George Floyd
was killed from excessive use of force.
And so we say to the people with
authority here, do the right thing.
Release the video?
All the video.
It's going to come out.
And we need to know that they will.
Be held accountable.
You know that's what video is for.
That's why we, the taxpayers pay money.
If you dare, right then we'll see it.
And we'll say, OK,
you did right?
But if you did wrong. We need
to see that too and hold them
accountable so it doesn't happen again.
I understand attorney here that
it's been alleged that the person,
the police officer who shot
Jalen Ramsey, Rhonda. This
wasn't his first time engaging
the excessive use of force against
African American citizens, and so we
have a right to know as the public.
West and his record you keep talking
about what's in Jayden's record where
Jalen and killed nobody.
Jamie McKeon nobody.
The person who killed.
Our person running away from
him was the police officer.
Why don't you tell us his history?
That point right there.
This family deserves to know because
at some point. Taylor's mother.
And grandparents are going to ask.
What happened to my daddy?
And they need to be able to tell the
truth about what happened to him,
and that's why we need full transparency.
Because. Jalen doesn't have a voice.
And his family in this
community must be his voice.
So his daughter will know.
That we stood up. For.
Truth we stood up for transparency.
We stood up for justice,
and we stood up for her daddy Jaylen.
Yeah. Let's demand that video be released.
It should not take.
Two more weeks.
If this video hasn't released by
the time George Floyd's anniversary,
we should have a March to demand
transparency not just for Jalen,
not just for George Florida
but transparency for us all.
That's what this is about.
This color. That's what this is about.
