Acting Police Chief Pamela Smith faced a room of mostly supporters on Wednesday as she testified before a D.C. Council committee preparing to vote on her confirmation as top cop. 

Police Chief Robert Contee said it appears people at the funeral were targeted.

Two marshals shot and a killed a man in his early 20s while attempting to arrest him, according to Police Chief Robert Contee.

The family of the man who was killed disputes some details of the investigation and plans to bring a civil lawsuit.

The bill would offer retention bonuses to retiring police officers to keep them on the force, but it would also do away with a number of police discipline and accountability provisions.

“Black people die every f—ing day at the hands of the police. The list is endless. And I’m tired of coming out here and listing every single name that’s been killed.”

Bowser and Contee said criticisms over the aggressive federal response to racial justice protests in summer 2020 impacted how federal officials responded to the Jan. 6 insurrection.

The rehired officers include an officer who had been fired three separate times and arrested for assault with a dangerous weapon, and an officer who was found guilty of simple assault in court.

The footage of last weekend’s police shooting of Kevin Hargraves-Shird shed little additional light on what happened.

Police confirmed a third death Friday afternoon.
