Porter Burks

Age :20

Gender :Male

Race : Black

Date : 10/02/2022

Location : Snowden+Lyndon St

City : Detroit

County : Wayne

State : Michigan

Agency : Detroit PD

Officer(s) :

Cause of Death : Gunshot

Event : Killed by police during mental health welfare check

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

Detroit PD responded to a call from the family of Porter Burks, informing them of a mental health crisis and that he wanted to get back to “medical treatment.” Police arrived and allegedly found Burks carrying a knife. Police allege he “lunged” at them, whereupon 4 officers fired shots and killed him with 38 shots in 3 seconds. Police released heavily edited parts of BWC recordings in which all vital parts have been edited out. The claim that Burks lunged at police with a knife cannot be confirmed and is not seen on the video police released, an odd fact considering police justified the killing with the claim of Burks “lunging” with a weapon. The Wayne County DA declared the killing as Justified.

Age :35

Gender :Female

Location : Unknown

City : Los Angeles

County : Los Angeles

State : California

Agency : LAPD

Officer(s) : Not Disclosed

Cause of Death : Vehicle

Event : Third party killed by police chase crash

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

JaneshaHarris, 35, and Jamarea Keyes, 38, were third parties driving down the street who were killed by a police chase crash when their BMW was struck by a 2006 Cadillac STS that was “speeding” due to being hunted by police.
LAPD claim they called off the chase and turned off their lights and sirens. The crash occurred less than five seconds after the sirens and lights were turned off, as is commonly the case.
Jasmine Mines, an attorney representing the Keyes and Harris families, said the newly released video shows inconsistencies with LAPD’s initial account of events.
“Even though the sirens were off, the officers were clearly still in pursuit. Initially, the LAPD officers stated they retreated and there were 15 seconds from the time they retreated to the time of the collision that ended in fatality. LAPD stated they were not engaged in any chase,” Mines said.
The dashcam video shows the officers chasing the Cadillac through at least four intersections with their lights and sirens on.
