Five victims, two attorneys and an activist who represents those who claim they were handled excessively by a Royce City Police Officer can view video from four officers, according to Police Chief Kirk Aldridge.

Aldridge said he is making the body-worn cameras and patrol car footage available for review on Wednesday afternoon at 1:30 p.m. "When was the duty to intervene? Where was the other officers to intervene in this situation and say, "Hey, you know what? Maybe you should sit down for a second," Minister Dominique Alexander said. Alexander is the CEO of the Next Generation Action Network. He has been assisting Janiaca Wheeler, Amaiyah-Allen Smith and two more unnamed victims. All of them also have attorneys who are speaking on their behalf. On Tuesday, Blerim Elmazi and Sean Daredia spoke for the alleged victims outside of the city hall in Royse City prior to the regularly scheduled meeting, where they were going to make a plea. "This is our formal way of being able to talk in front of the mayor and the city council for them to join in this call, for this officer to be terminated," Alexander said. "For this officer to be charged, to know that we come in the spirit of justice, but to resolve this situation and to properly remedy this situation in the damages that they have caused to this family.
