Heidi Fraley:  The Mayor of Venice straight up LIED to me about the George Floyd vigil

 

Heidi Fraley (resident of the City of Venice)
I emailed the mayor about the Candle Light vigil for George Floyd & asked him if Venice Police Department was invited to speak at the vigil as well so as not to cause any divide in our home town & the mayor straight up LIED to me saying that it was canceled when it was not…it was only rescheduled at a different location…at which the mayor spoke…but when he left the vigil…he then interfered with a police stop for an individual who was driving on a suspended license & had an expired license plate. How & why is that fair & who gave him the right!? https://thesuncoastnews.com/2020/06/mayor-of-venice-interrupts-a-police-stop-of-a-person-of-color-after-giving-a-eulogy-at-the-george-floyd-vigil-concerned-that-there-may-be-some-form-of-social-injustice-occurring
