The video shows Sequette Clark speaking about the death of her son, a Black man who was killed in the backyard of his grandparents’ home. The shooting led to weeks of protests in Sacramento and across the nation, sometimes disrupting games by the NBA’s Sacramento Kings. California District Attorneys Assn. President Vern Pierson complained Tuesday that the video omits some of the background and crucial context, including that both the Sacramento County district attorney and California attorney general ultimately“Though well-intentioned, the video performs a disservice instead of a public service by omitting the crucial facts which preceded Mr. Clark’s tragic death,” association president Vern Pierson said in a statement.
