New NRPD Special Needs Registry Would Not Have Saved Jerrell Garris from Himself

New NRPD Special Needs Registry Would Not Have Saved Jerrell Garris from Himself

DUBLIN, IRELAND (September 29, 2024) — In response to the September 18 release of the Attorney General Report on the Investigation into the Death of Jarrel Garris, the New Rochelle Police Department announced a new Special Needs Registry Program on September 27.

The idea seems to be that the registry is somehow a meaningful response to what happened on July 3, 2023. If so, it is an empty gesture.
