An independent investigation has revealed that law enforcement officials were wrong in stopping him. He should be alive today. Black Lives Matter.

Remembering Elijah McClain, born on this day in 1996. Here he is playing his violin for cats at a pet store during his lunch break as a massage therapist in Aurora, Colorado in 2019. pic.twitter.com/k5NUb1EJSR

#ElijahMcClain should be living among us today, celebrating his 25th birthday.

We shouldn’t have to keep hashtagging human beings.

This comes as part of a 157-page report scrutinizing what happened that night. McClain died three days after he was put in a carotid hold by police and injected with ketamine. These findings will be presented to the Aurora City Council later today. #ElijahMcClain
