On Sunday May 16th 12am a family was awoken by a flash grenade crashing through their window, then a SWAT team stormed into their home.
There are conflicting stories as to what happened next but the fact remains that an officer drew his gun and fired the fatal shot that killed 7-year old Aiyana Jones.
The Detroit police were searching for a homicide suspect that was involved in the slaying of a 17-year-old boy. The suspect had no relation to the Jones family besides living in one apartment in the 2-unit duplex where they resided.
Mic Legacy speaks on the tragedy of the innocent girls death and inhumane police tactics on his new track “Police State (Awe Yeah)”.
