The police officer who shot ex-con Corey Ruiz in Madison, Wisconsin after being knifed should be criminally charged, the attorney for the dead man’s family declared Friday.
Ben Crump, who has represented the family of George Floyd and Michael Brown, gave a fiery press conference, two days after the caught-on-camera police shooting. Crump promised that “there will be no peace and business as usual in Madison, Wisconsin,” until the police are held accountable.
He spoke alongside Ruiz’s daughter, siblings and mother — who broke down in sobs at the podium as supporters chanted “Justice for Corey!”
