On May 13th, 2019, 44 year old Pamela Turner was shot and killed by Baytown Police Officer Juan Delacruz while she was outside her apartment complex. Turner, who suffered from Schizophrenia, had had previous interactions with the officer stemming from what the family alleges was harassment from the apartment complex management. The family talks about Pamela's unrelenting drive to help others, and the trauma and challenges that they still face in finding justice for Pamela Turner.

Titles in the series (94)

Webby & New York Festival Award Winning series focusing on the assault and killing of Black people by police and in ‘Stand Your Ground’ states, highlighting incidents throughout the United States. Serving as a memorialization for these individuals, we learn about who these people were through the the words of the people that knew them best, while also helping us understand what these situations do to their families and communities not only in the immediate aftermath, but also what happens when the news-cycle moves on and the social media attention shifts focus. We offer solutions, spread awareness and support for these families & communities, including a crowdfunding campaign throughout the series to directly benefit the families impacted by these incidents (they receive 100% of those proceeds), so that we can make an immediate tangible difference.
