Where can families turn after losing a loved one in a police shooting?

Losing a family member suddenly and unexpectedly is difficult. But that experience can feel magnified if that loved one is killed by the people tasked to protect us – law enforcement. On this episode, we speak with Sheila Clemmons Lee, whose son Jocques Clemmons was killed by a Metro Nashville Police Department officer in 2017; Vickie Hambrick, whose son Daniel Hambrick was killed by an MNPD officer in 2018; Brandi Johnson Neuble, whose brother William Johnson Jr. was killed in a shootout with MNPD in 2020; and Tangie Curtis, whose daughter Nicole Holbert was killed by an MNPD officer in 2021. What resources are currently available to these families? What would they like to see offered to families after future incidents? We’ll also hear from a Community Oversight Board member who’s pushing to better meet these families’ needs. Guests: Jill Fitcheard, executive director of the Metro Nashville Community Oversight Board Sheila Clemmons Lee, mother of Jocques Clemmons and assistant program director of Mothers Over Murder Brandi Johnson Neuble, sister of William Johnson Jr. Vickie Hambrick, mother of Daniel Hambrick
