I don't have much more to say about the situation with Phoenix PD. Just about all of the details can be found in Dave's report here. Thanks to everyone who has reached out to offer support. We're hoping to hear back from the chief or someone at the department soon.
Our report and video is now up.
Phoenix didn’t respond to our requests for comment or answer specific questions. We also asked for body camera and records.
They did release an incident report late today.

The limitations of BIDEN's marijuana pardons:
➡️ they did nothing for the majority of people with marijuana convictions, since they are under state laws.
➡️ Biden did not instruct federal immigration authorities to stop deporting immigrants for possession. nytimes.com/2022/11/27/us/po…
