Smitherman: Protest Caton’s Promotion!
Posted by Media Release
Dear Membership and Community,
On Wednesday, January 30, 2008 please show up to City Hall regarding Officer Caton’s recent promotion to Sergeant. Please get to City Hall located at 801 Plum Street by 1:00 PM so that you may fill out a speakers card and speak to the mayor, the council and the city manager about our outrage regarding the decision to promote Caton on the Martin Luther King holiday.
This is the officer who murdered Roger Owensby Jr. You have 2 minutes to speak and you must turn in your card by 1:15 PM in order to do so. The other role you can play is just be present. It is unfortunate but Caton’s promotion has made national news. We continue to embarrass the region and the city with these types of barbaric decisions.
See you on Wednesday, January 30, 2008 at 1:00 PM at City Hall.
Please click on this link for more information about Officer Caton.
Christopher Smitherman
President of the Cincinnati NAACP
