Twenty-five years ago, the Los Angeles Times published a two-part investigativeseries I wrote about fatal shootings by police in Ventura County.
The first article quoted both grieving relatives and police officers who themselves were traumatized after the shootings. "My son is dead. I want to know why," said the mother of a 23-year-old who was shot by police after he had leveled an empty shotgun at them.
If elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, Brookline resident Dave Cavell wants to make his team accessible to people in the Fourth Congressional District of Massachusetts.
The Cavell campaign put out a press release on Thursday, July 16 announcing that Cavell wants to establish five traveling offices in the district so that people who live in it will be within 20 minutes of a location at least once a week. Cavell's staff and Cavell himself, when possible, would be available at these locations.
