Steven Barrier @justiceforstevenbarrier was turning 23 years old the day he was celebrating his Birthday on October 23, 2019. Steven suffered a mental health crisis and was needlessly killed that night when his family alleges Stamford CT PD/law enforcement murdered him. Following his death, the family and peaceful protestors suffered intimidation and arrest for exercising their civil rights.
Join his mother, Valerie Jaddo, this Saturday (10.23.21) along with friends and family in activating for Justice on “Steven Barrier Day” Live in Lione Park, 325 Stillwater Avenue in Stamford CT at 5PM.
LEARN: Steven’s family and the Connecticut Legal Rights Project, Inc., brought a case before the CT Federal Courts seeking injunctive relief demanding laws be codified that would require law enforcement respond to psychiatric emergencies with a community-based, non-police mental health response team as the primary responder. The complaint also seeks Justice in accountability for Steven’s death.
