Protest Meeting After The Inquest into the Shooting Of John T. Williams By A Seattle Officer

Saw this on the street on my way back home...
King County Prosecutor's Office
The inquest into the death of John T. Williams has been completed. The inquest jury has answered the interrogatories examining the facts surrounding the death of John T. Williams on August 30, 2010. With the inquest now completed, the King County Prosecutor's Office will conduct an independent review of the evidence brought forth during the inquest and will consider the findings of the jury to determine whether or not criminal charges are warranted against Seattle Police Officer Ian Birk. Prosecutors expect to finish this review in mid-February.

Interesting scene and lovely night time shot with all the lights, people and trees in the background.

[Maxine Melson]

Nice honest shot

[peter/zipp]

Murder is murder, and state sanctioned murder should be dealt with honestly..

[payyourrates]

Nice. I like the lady with the umbrella.

[Diana Moss]

very interesting caption and photo, sorry I haven't made many comments but busy on our visit to see family

[Peggy Sirk]

I googled this story...so unfortunate and tragic.
This is a perfectly vivid night shot with your new Leica, Constance.

Saw this on the news when I got home, but somehow missed it in person. I've been following the story in the paper fairly closely and find this inquest to be an interesting process.

Re: I'm still working on the art project -.-

[Carole Mattingly]

Nice in the moment shot. So many emotions.

[Karen Hurd (hwy61)]

Good capture but I will not judge...so many things involved in cases like this...often the media paints a less that honest account by omitting some details and emphasizing other ones...we see it every day in politics.

[Constance Brinkley]

@hwy61 I agree. I document it only and will leave the resolution to the judge and jury.

[momeraths]

great capture here... so much going on

[Rick Schies]

It i ssad when things like this happen, and it is always a difficult process when they try to find out all the details. Hopefully they will make the necessary inquiries and bring a just end to this heartache.

@sleepdozer57 And the gunning down four officers in a coffee shop? Neither side wins when a instantaneous decision has to be made.

[peter/zipp]

@byrdlip hi, i agree with that, no winners here. And no offence intended towards anybody.
In a democracy, an honest and transperant inquiry reassures and reinstalls faith in the system, that's what i mean.
