During a recent Atlanta City Council meeting, a speaker addressed the council regarding his grievances with the Atlanta Police Department (APD) and the Atlanta Citizen Review Board. The individual, who identified himself as a man of God and a community advocate, expressed his frustration over the handling of his complaint against Officer David Holloman. He claimed that the review board found inconsistencies in Holloman's statements regarding an incident where the officer allegedly pointed his gun at him.

The speaker criticized the lack of acknowledgment or apology from the city council or the mayor's office, asserting that the actions taken against him were retaliatory. He emphasized that despite these challenges, he received good news regarding his professional endeavors. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement approved his criminal background check, allowing him to establish Washington Memorial Memorial Funeral Service LLC, which he noted will be the first Black funeral home in Union County, Florida.

He lamented the disrespect he felt from the APD and expressed disappointment that no city council members reached out to him regarding his situation. The speaker highlighted his commitment to advocating for justice, referencing high-profile cases involving African Americans, and concluded by asserting that he felt vindicated despite the adversity he faced.
