Families Advocate for No-Knock Warrant Ban at MN State Capitol

Families advocating for a ban on no-knock warrants gathered at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul. The group, including the mother of Amir Locke and families of Jamar Clark and Winston Smith, were represented by attorney Ben Crump. They are calling for policy changes following the deaths of their loved ones, arguing that no-knock warrants contributed to these tragedies. Amir Locke, 22, was killed by Minneapolis police during such a warrant execution on February 2, 2022.
