COUNCIL PUBLIC
INFORMATION NEWS RELEASE
IMMEDIATE RELEASE TO BE FORWARDED AND SHARED
Wednesday,
13 July 2016
A
Statement from The Honorable Reva M. Trammell, Councilwoman, Richmond City
Council, Richmond Southside 8th Voter District
Regarding
vandalism of the Richmond Police Memorial Statue
(Richmond, Virginia U.S.A.) - “I think it is a horrible insult, tragedy and shame that
the Richmond Police Memorial Statue was vandalized. These Richmond Police
officers dedicated their lives to protecting our families and the desecration
of their memory at a cemetery, park or anywhere is just plain wrong. Whoever
did this are either cowards or misguided individuals that need to be exposed
and held accountable for this shameful act. Their sentence should be to either
pay for or assist with the restoration of the Richmond Police Memorial Statue
and to do community service that includes working with the police and the
community.”
CONTACT For more information, please contact Councilwoman Reva
Trammell, at 804-240-5050 (mobile); or 804-233-7382 (home), or via email, at reva.trammell@richmondgov.com
