Note on Huffington Post Article: The article sites numerous canadian murder investigations as examples of how the “police have utterly failed” by not taking reports of violence against minority communities seriously. However, after having read the case files of some of these - the police actually did have long-withstanding investigations into these cases. There may be an oversimplification of facts cited in the Huff Post article. I have not been able to find substantial reading on how long and complex investigations will be supported if defunding the police does take place.

(Thank you so much to the person who put this together but wants to keep their identity quiet.)

The email reads:

Hello,

My name is [YOUR NAME]. I am a resident of [YOUR TOWN], and I am emailing today to demand that you begin to limit police militarization and police budget spending immediately.

While the HRP is meant to protect the people of Halifax and maintain peace and security, our city is made unsafe by your willingness to finance racial profiling and excessive force against Black and Indigenous people. The HRP, like all police departments, has a long history of violence against innocent, unarmed Black and Indigenous people and it is essential that those we have chosen to lead our city do their part to ensure it never happens again.

I am calling on you to never again vote to increase the HRP's budget. This includes funding for body cams, police training programs, or military weapons, all of which have been shown to be ineffective, improperly used, and to put the public at an increased risk of the use of violent force. In particular, since delivery has been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic, I am calling on you to take this opportunity to rescind the half-million dollars in funding for HRP to purchase a so-called "armoured rescue vehicle".

I am calling on you to consider how these funds could be used to benefit initiatives that are more effective in tackling the root causes of crime and violence, such as social housing, mental health supports, and healthy community building efforts. Redirect more funding toward programs that better the quality of life for our most vulnerable, to protect the lives of those you have sworn to serve.

I am calling on you to invest in alternatives to policing as a crime prevention strategy, to prioritize the creation and expansion of community-led health and safety initiatives, community oversight committees for police officers, and to independently investigate and prosecute those officers who violate the law and basic human rights.

We can and must choose to transition away from an institution that was created to target, harass, and murder Black and Indigenous people. We must prioritize mutual aid, harm reduction, and education if we are to end the violence. We must move toward abolition of the institution of policing, and this begins with diverting their over-abundant funding.

When you were elected, you entered into a contract to represent the people in your community. Your failure to take action against police brutality will result in a failure to represent our community and me.

Sincerely,

[YOUR NAME]

Letter to District Attorney Michael D. Graveley

Michael D. Graveley

Kenosha County District Attorney

Molinaro Building

912 56th Street

Kenosha, WI 53140

Dear District Attorney Michael D. Graveley,

We are writing to you regarding an urgent matter of justice: dropping charges against child sex trafficking survivor, Chrystul Kizer.

At 17 years old, Chrystul was trafficked by Randall P. Volar III from Milwaukee to Kenosha, Wisconsin where she experienced ongoing physical and sexual abuse. As you know, other girls were also victimized by Volar, as he was under active investigation by the Kenosha Police Department for sexual conduct with underage girls prior to his death. In the state of Wisconsin, people under the age of 18 years old are not able to consent to engage in sexual activity. Therefore, any “sexual conduct” Volar had with these girls, including Chrystul, was sexual violence.

According to Chrystul and her legal counsel, on June 5 2018 Chrystul resisted Volar’s attempts to forcibly engage in sexual activity. During this struggle, Chrystul shot Volar in an act of self-defense. Chrystul has been charged, wrongfully, for surviving violence. She is being criminalized for staying alive.

Chrystul’s criminalization fits the pattern of Black people in general, and Black women and girls specifically, being denied the right to self-defense in US legal systems. Black girls and women are not seen by courts or society more broadly as being vulnerable to violence, even though they experience disproportionate levels of violence compared to white women and girls. Consider that overall, Black/African American girls are 3.5 times more likely to be incarcerated than white girls. Studies by the ACLU show that the majority of girls in juvenile detention have experienced both physical and sexual assault prior to their incarceration. In a study by the Medical College of Wisconsin on sex trafficking in the city of Milwaukee (2013-16), 65% of victims under age 25 were Black/African American and 24% were white. Further, studies on women in prison demonstrate that women who are victims of abuse are more likely to be in prison for a violent offense than incarcerated women who had not been victims of abuse.

In your statements to members of the public and to the media about Chrystul’s case, you have indicated that Chrystul was merely “hired as a prostitute,” “involved in a business transaction,” and that she had “come to this community from another [to kill her trafficker].” These statements and the charges against Chrystul signal to her family and the larger community that Black women and girls do not live lives worth saving. Chrystul was a child and was being victimized and sexually exploited by an adult. Black girls have the right to resist sexual violence and the right to survive.

In Chrystul Kizer’s case, justice means dropping all charges so she can be released immediately. Child sex trafficking survivors, including Chrystul, need community and comprehensive support to heal from the trauma and violence they have endured. Incarceration at this young, formative age does not provide needed healing; it only compounds trauma. In no report on child sex trafficking that we are aware of is incarceration a recommended approach to healing survivors - rather, experts on child sex trafficking have highlighted incarceration as a problem survivors face. Chrystul should not spend the rest of her life in prison. You have the power to undo the further injustice Chrystul is being subjected to for staying alive. We urge you to make the right choice.

Sincerely,
