Memorial in front of the SPD’s East Precinct for John T. Williams and Charleena Lyles, who were killed by Seattle Police and Ahmaud Arbery, who was killed by a racist mob of white men in Georgia. Photo was taken on June 20, 2020 by SPD officer Scott Kawahara. Obtained through a public record request.
