Today we honor the memory of First Nations woodcarver John T. Williams, who was shot and killed by an SPD officer on this day 14 years ago.

His death culminated in CPC’s creation, and we carry the memory of Williams and other victims of police misconduct in everything we do.

"We agree with Chief Rahr’s decision to terminate."

"Detective Auderer’s actions and behavior that evening serve as a reminder that we have a lot of work to do towards addressing the culture that tolerated that conversation in the first place."

Heavy hearts at City Hall with the passing of Jim Hilles. What a great human being. Jim kept our staff and building safe, made sure we were always doing well and was one of the most kind people. Our prayers are with his family. We will miss him at city hall ❤️❤️❤️❤️
