Family of man killed by APD calls for police de-escalation medal.
, Rajan's brother, said at a rally outside City Hall on June 6."Our family, through the foundation established for Rajan, would like to pledge our support and our funding to establish this sort of medal. Austin must learn from the other cities that have struggled with this issue and made changes.
The investigation she spoke of is the one that APD is still conducting, as they've told Ruth and local press. She said that as far as the family can tell, the main subject of the investigation remains Rajan, not the officers. And she asked police to return Rajan's phones, which were confiscated as evidence, so the family can retrieve the last photos he took before his upcoming birthday, when he would have turned 34.
"Now that Prop A has passed and the awful bill did not pass, it's time for us today to launch the promised oversight system and bring sunlight into the investigation of Rajan's death," Ruth said."We expect city leaders to immediately reestablish theas an independent investigator, with the power to improve the current investigation, find the facts, and assure that Austin is working to prevent this from happening to anyone else.
