"He was the sunshine of our family. We really miss him. It's just unbelievable what happened. And I hope nobody has to go through what we've been through."- Lance Madison, speaking of his brother Ronald Madison, a victim of the N.O.P.D. during the Danziger Bridge Incident
TWO SEPARATE AUTOPSIES FOUND 7 BULLET WOUNDS, INCLUDING FIVE IN HIS BACK.Ronald Madison was a 40 year old mentally disabled man who lived at home with his mother. He had no criminal record. Yet he was mercilessly gunned down by the N.O.P.D. as he attempted to cross the Danziger Bridge with his older brother Lance. the two were in search of food and shelter as their neighborhood had been severely flooded during the storm. Police claimed to have only shot him once in self-defense. Clearly, this is untrue, as at least five bullet holes alone were found in Madison's back.
The police report for this incident has been clearly altered. The last two lines are in completely different handwriting than the rest of the document. When questioned about this, the officer who added the lines, Sgt. Arthur Kaufman, said in sworn testimony, "I was told that by one of the other officers." This does not seem like justice and transparency are being achieved, or even attempted at, by the N.O.P.D.
