Estamos indignados por la desestimación los cargos contra el exoficial de policía de Filadelfia, Mark Dial. La familia de Eddie Irizarry merece rendición de cuentas y justicia.

Our hearts are with the family of Eddie Irizarry, who was killed by Philadelphia Police earlier this month. Eddie, or Junito as he is fondly referred to by loved ones, was only 27 years old when he was shot in his car.
