Dr. Nicole Mason welcoming people to the vigil for #TimothyMcCreeJohnson

Timothy’s mother, Melissa Johnson, speaking about why she came to Fairfax to hold this vigil. Says Fairfax County NAACP statement on #TimothyMcCreeJohnson killing reflects her demands.

“What played out in the media was [police acting as] judge, jury, and executioner.” Johnson demands policy change. #TimothyMcCreeJohnson

Timothy Johnson’s whole family is here, including his children. #JusticeForTimJ

Pastor Vernon Walton calls out the county for hiring police Chief Davis over great community objection. #TimothyMcCreeJohnson

Family attorney Carl Cruz: taking Timothy’s life wasn’t a split-second decision, it was a deliberate violation of standing policy. The officer’s gun was not an option, unless he felt danger from somebody running away. The police are investigating themselves.

Cruz adds that during their initial investigation, police were “crawling around looking for a gun that would never be found” in an effort to paint Tim Johnson as a violent criminal. “All that was theater to influence the public.” #TimothyMcCreeJohnson
