Fort Worth police investigating five homicides in five first days of 2023 -- a reminder of the need for efforts to curb gun violence.
“I think we need to get out here and speak to these young people. I mean, they don’t know if we don’t tell them,” she said. “We need to be a voice for them. This is our future. I mean, and our future, it’s diminishing right now. Right in front of us.”
Carter said Fort Worth Police are constantly trying to stay engaged with the community through various programs. He would personally like to see more mediation training be made available to young people. “If they were able to do that, I think a lot of the gun violence that we’re seeing across Fort Worth or across America, I think would be changed. We need to learn today to talk through things,” he said. “If we learn that, I promise you, our world would be a much better place. But that’s me stepping on a soapbox and being a police officer.”
Hamilton said she hopes the conversation around curbing violent crimes will include more than police and schools. “Your families are going to have to get involved. It may not have happened to you right now, but you don’t ever know. We don’t want it to happen to you like it has happened to us,” she said.e at school assemblies within Fort Worth ISD to address the issue of gun violence. It’s unclear if similar assemblies will be held this year.
