| 2021-04-26 |
| [FoxNews] Elizabeth City, N.C. officials declared a state of emergency Monday ahead of the possible public release of body camera footage of the fatal shooting of Andrew Brown Jr. during a drug-related warrant executed by sheriff’s deputies last week. Brown's family and their attorneys will privately be shown the video at the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office at 11:30 a.m. ET Monday and will hold a news conference immediately following. Ben Crump, the high-profile civil rights attorney who secured the $27 million civil lawsuit in Minneapolis for the family of George Floyd, as well as attorneys Harry Daniels, Bakari Sellers and Brown's relatives, will be present. Elizabeth City-Pasquotank Public Schools will operate on a full remote schedule for all students and staff through Friday "due to the continuously evolving state of civil unrest in our local community and under the advisement of our local law enforcement partners." |

| #2 It has become more than a cottage business. Ben Crump is on a roll. This same guy, Attorney Ben Crump showed up in Knoxville recently after a school shooting. See: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/civil-rights-attorney-ben-crump-to-knox-county-leaders-be-responsive-to-the-outrage/ar-BB1g3Vml?ocid=uxbndlbing Crump got $27 mil for the George Floyd family in a civil case. Attorney advertising becomes free at that point. |
