Protesters showed up in front of San Francisco's district attorney's office on Wednesday to speak out against her decision to not charge the Walgreens security guard in the shooting death of accused shoplifter Banko Brown.
Protesters gathered on the street in front of SF DA Brooke Jenkins offices near Potrero Hill on Wednesday, decrying her decision to not prosecute Michael Earl-Wayne Anthony, the Walgreens security guard who fatally shot Banko Brown at a downtown San Francisco Walgreens last month.
D.A. Jenkins' decision has sharply divided San Francisco, with some backing the decision to not charge, and others pushing for that guard to face legal consequences. One thing everyone agrees on, the death of Banko Brown feels like a needless tragedy. "We brought the protest here to the D.A.'s office because she needs to hear from the community and know that it's not OK for her to cherry-pick who can be a victim in this city," said Geoffrea Morris fromProtesters say the video the district attorney released did not show a guard in fear of his life, on the contrary, they say that guard appeared to be the aggressor in this deadly encounter.
The supervisors say the district attorney's opinion that Anthony, the guard, would mount a successful self-defense argument in court is wrong given that a weapon was never found at the scene or on Brown.
