On scene where #KevinPetersonJr was killed. Family is trying to get info. @ClarkCountySO says they need to call Camas police 311 and ask for PIO. Family says they already did that and there is no PIO. Camas will not have press release today
@ClarkCountySO says Camas can't investigate til morning. #KevinPetersonJr body is still in street, but they are towing his car from Quality Inn Parking lot
Qaulity Inn staff has been behind police tape all night, that family was not able to cross. They thought he was a cop. Family says, cops said they don't know where #KevinPetersonJr car was, then tow truck showed and took his car.
Anyone know what this is that they are using to investigate? They have opened the Quality inn parking lot back up and completed investigation in that area (4:30am)
It appears like Camas PD and Ridgefield PD are running things, Clark County are taking orders. Word is that Clack County cannot investigate because they were the ones that killed #KevinPetersonJr.Female Camas Cop seems to be doing all the talking to family. State Patrol also here
Family of #KevinPetersonJr has finally been taken behind police tape. (4:52am)
Mother of #KevinPetersonJr visibly distraught walking back, brother tries to go consol her and state troopers don't allow him. Cops say "we get it". This understandably upset family. Mom gets back and whole family breaks down and holds eachother. Heartbreaking
#KevinPetersonJr family has left after Kevin was transported. There will be a Vigil tomorrow at 6pm. Remember the family is grieving and should be given ample space.
Mac documented the evening well before I got there

There are alot of people that have been problematic and put people in danger that seem to have corrected those behaviors, but I've heard nothing from them acknowledging their wrongs. Im starting to notice how many are working with these people as if nothing ever happened. I ...1/
..will still defend those folks from far right violence & state suppression, but that doesn't mean sweep shit under the rug. I'm increasingly noticing many treated as well trusted folks that are brand new to the movement (since May) and have twitter accounts that 2/
..started after beginning of #GeorgeFloyd protests. It is good that there are so many new people and many can be trusted to a certain degree, but treating new folks like experienced, well trusted and vetted folks is a problem. Trust is earned and shown through their actions. 3/

Former Cop, Mark Wells, testified today in opposition to defunding $18M. He was misleading & gave inaccurate info. He is pres. of Portland Public Safety Action Coalition formed under Tom Potter (former police chief/mayor)& exec of Bastion Security.Worked in immigration after 9/11
2)Makes claims that @DAMikeSchmidt said cutting the Gun Violence Reduction team was cut at the worse time. @joann4portland corrected for the record that Schmidt was clear, increase in gun violence was not related. He also innacuretly stated gun violence went up bc GVRT dissolved
3) We know that Gun Violence was going up before GVRT dissolved and didn't go down after it was developed. You'll notice the police won't publish the stats on gun violence for other years. #Copaganda
