Tamir's mother is outraged, saying 'I'm devastated and disgusted by it...It's pitiful and pathetic. It shows that the system is unfair and unjust.'
has said it will not reopen the civil rights investigation into the death of Tamir Rice, a Black 12-year-old who was fatally shot by Cleveland police in 2014, noting that its prior decision is not an exoneration.Department is under court-ordered supervision from the DOJ after the Rice shooting due to"a pattern and practice of using excessive force and violating people's civil rights," the AP reported.
"[The Justice Department] made a poor decision," Samaria Rice, Tamir's mother said, according to Cleveland.com."I'm devastated and disgusted by it. I have no understanding how a 12-year-old boy can't get justice in this country. I'm at a loss for words. It's pitiful and pathetic. It shows that the system is unfair and unjust."
Abady said in the email that they were told in the meeting that federal prosecutors were concerned that applicable civil rights legislation may not give a basis to charge the officers involved in Tamir's death. He disagrees with the interpretation. The 2020 decision says the evidence does not prove that Officers Timothy Loehmann and Frank Garmback, who responded to a 911 call involving Tamir on the day of his death, acted willfully under the color of law to deprive Tamir of his rights, according to a DOJ press release. Clake wrote this decision was made"based solely upon the applicable facts and law, without political input or influence.
