Legal Support for Mary Hooks!
Doação protegida
Hi Friends!
On April 15, 2014, two College Park white male officers assaulted Mary Hooks. Mary Hooks is a mother, sister, friend, community organizer, and a lover of her people. She witnessed an aggressive and excessive police interaction between 4 officers with their guns drawn and 2 younger Black women pulled over behind her car at a gas station.
When the two male officers approached Mary, she assured them she was standing back and placed her hands up. These officers continue toward her, grabbed her and slammed her into the pavement, pushed her head into the ground with their knees, resulting in a scrab on her head and a fractured elbow.
Subsequently, she was arrested, her truck was impounded, and she was charged with obstructing and public disorderly conduct. Both having fines and possible jail time.
On behalf of Mary Hooks, community we are asking for your support to raise $3,500.00 cover her legal fees, fines and other support needs. If you would like to connect to the case and show Mary further support please leave a note with your donation or inbox taliba o njeri on Facebook and we will contact you.
