Investigate Denver Police Department for the shooting death of Jessie Hernandez!

Denver police officers shot and killed 17-year old Latina Jessie Hernandez as she drove a car full of her teenage friends.

Denver Police Department has a problem — shooting at a moving vehicle is against department policy, but their officers have done so four times in the last seven months, killing two people and injuring three.

But it doesn't stop there. Denver Police Department has a history of excessive force and bullying tactics that have left many dead or injured, and that have cost the city of Denver millions of dollars in legal settlements.

It seems clear that Denver Police Department has exhibited a pattern of violating people's civil rights. By increasing national scrutiny on Denver's history of police violence, your petition signature can encourage the Department of Justice to step in and investigate Jessie's death.

The Message

Below is the message we'll send to Attorney General Eric Holder on your behalf:

I call on you to investigate Denver Police Department for their history of police violence and civil rights violations, and for the shooting death of 17 year old Latina teen Jessica Hernandez.
