Why release the videos now?
We get asked, "Why didn't you release them when it happened?" Honestly, we were in shock, processing what had happened, and trusted the system. We trusted Law Enforcement and local leadership would surely see the footage and come to the reasonable conclusion, providing Justice for Vivian.When it became apparent that hope was in vain, we decided to let people see what happened and let the community come to their own conclusions.
The "Edited" Video

Full DashCam Officer Schimmel
Full BodyCam Officer Thomas (2nd on scene)
Officer Thomas shows up on scene, bringing a calm level head that changed the tone of the whole situation. We thank him for his service, he is the SRO in our highschool and we feel lucky to have him in our community!
Be outraged. Make your voice heard.
We need to demand more from law enforcement.
Together we can get
Justice for Vivian and Justice for All
