Racism and police violence shows no sign of
ending in the deep South..

Officials said the call involved Wiley’s mother and great aunt.
Wiley was inside a car with his mother, who was holding him, and his great-aunt, who was driving, when an officer fired toward the vehicle. Wiley and his great-aunt were shot. Wiley died from his injuries.
The officer who fired his gun was placed on administrative leave, which city leaders said was standard practice after deadly police shootings.
The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation assigned five agents to the case to gather statements and reviewed witness accounts, body-camera and dashcam video and Walmart surveillance video.
In an initial account of the shooting, state investigators said: “Officers attempted to stop the vehicle, but the driver drove in the direction of the officers, almost striking one. An officer then discharged their weapon and the vehicle fled the scene.”
The killing has drawn comparisons to other instances where Black people lost their lives over accusations of petty criminal offenses, such as the murder of George Floyd. 'Driving in the direction of officers' is now a death warrant, just like 'He went for his waistband!'
Killer pigs.
