KCK and KCMO Activist Combine for a March for Investigation of Police

by The VOICE News Service September 27, 2023September 27, 2023

Activists from Kansas and Missouri are marching from Kansas to Missouri to demand federal intervention by the Department of Justice in KCPD and KCKPD, with the goal of investigating civil rights violations in both departments.

Marquez Teetz, brother of Cedric “CJ” Lofton led the candlelight vigil held on the second anniversary of his brother’s death. While the vigil focused on CJ’s memory, there was a lot of discussion among those in attendance about changes that still need to be made to keep something like this from happening again in the future.
