The Muhlenberg Police Department didn't want Mr Hughes to hurt himself so they opened the locked door and shot him to death.
And this is justified? We call bullcrap.
And yes, mental health professionals have dealt with these exact situations all over the country and in places with strong programs they have been able to reduce the number of deaths and violence, much as our director Celine is quoted as saying in this very article, John:

"An local activist group, Berks Stands Up, has called the shooting an unnecessary use of force.
Celine Schrier, lead organizer of Berks Stands Up, told the Reading Eagle a week after the shooting that mental health experts should have first been called to Hughes' house.
"In this moment, this was a man who was in distress," Schrier said. "If it had been health care responders, I believe it would have unfolded differently."
Adams said mental health workers are not trained to respond to such dangerous situations."

Mayor Kenney, in an open letter to Philadelphia, asks the City to respond peacefully to the verdict of Derek Chauvin. Closing arguments on the case are to be heard Monday. Keep an eye out for other preparations PPD and others make leading up to this and always let us know.

Wouldn’t it be easier and better to, y’know, hold Chauvin accountable for murdering someone rather than activating the National Guard? Ridiculous. Fuck the community peace police, fuck the “healing circles”; healing comes from accountability and change.
