Baltimore City Council Taxpayer’s Night is tomorrow and we are asking you all to testify on behalf of Keith. As a taxpayer, your money is directly funding the injustice that is happening in courtrooms around this country. For residents of Baltimore City, your money has funded FOUR trials against Keith Davis Jr. That’s over a million dollars that has been taken away from other resources! We cannot be silent because silence implicates us all!
