If, with the nation watching, three black women at three different levels can't get justice... for this community, you tell me where you're going to get it in our country.

I went to Annapolis for tougher laws to hold cops accountable. I'm fighting to bring back the trust between the police and the community.

(The city is being) destroyed by thugs who in a very senseless way are trying to tear down what so many have fought for, tearing down businesses, tearing down or destroying property, things that we know will impact our community for years.

I'm not blind to the fact that we have to do a better job with our relationships between the community and police.

I understand the frustration of the community, i want citizens to know exactly how it happened, and if necessary, I will ensure that we hold the right people accountable.

The DOJ has employed these investigations in communities across our nation to reform serious patterns and practices of force, biased policing and other unconstitutional practices by law enforcement. I'm asking the Department of Justice to investigate if our police department has engaged in a pattern or practice of stops, searches or arrests that violate the Fourth Amendment.

Let's take our babies home and abide by the curfew. I want to thank you for understanding that we want to bring peace.
