Jason Downs is a civil rights attorney who has represented the families of Freddie Gray and Terrence Sterling in civil matters arising from their deaths.

Brutality and lawlessness flourish in an environment that condones violence. We must take a long, hard look at the environment that fostered a police officer’s failing to activate his body camera and killing an unarmed man by shooting him in the back and neck.

On Sept. 11, 2016, D.C. police officer Brian Trainer shot and killed Terrence Sterling in our nation’s capital. Sterling, an unarmed, 31-year-old black man, was shot once in the neck and once in the back. Almost a year went by with only silence from the criminal-justice system. On Aug. 9, the U.S. Attorney’s Office announced that it had chosen not to seek an indictment against Trainer on any charges related to the killing.

Immediately after news broke that there would be no charges, Police Chief Peter Newsham and Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) asked Trainer to resign. These requests are a step in the right direction. Resignation would be partial justice for the Sterling family, whose lives are forever changed.
