{{subst:requested move|Murder of Rekia Boyd|reason=Place
{{subst:requested move|Murder of Rekia Boyd|reason=Place "fatally shot" is the most ridiculous and evil sentence i read, time and time again, on wikipedia. It is extremely dangerous, not to mention unjust, to exonerate and excuse murder like this just because "its not neutral" who cares about neutrality in the face of this. Murder isnt neutral its cold blooded murder. She was an innocent girl shot in the head point blank, what would you call that? and by a member of a hate group no less that does it time and time again. Please dont change my edits to this page. Please stop with the "neutral" policy; change the title to what it should be. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Karma x irelia (talk • contribs) 12:56, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
The title should be changed to Murder of.
editWhy is it that whenever innocents are murdered by police the title is always "shooting of" or "death of" but not murder? It isnt neutral, respectful or true at all to go to such great lengths in order to avoid calling it what it is: Murder. Please change the title so its more accurate and neutral and less in favor of a killer.
Rest in peace Rekia.
Claim of drunkenness
editI removed the witness claim that Servin "appeared drunk". The witness is not qualified to make such an observation and absent the results of a blood alcohol test it's pure speculation and a WP:BLP violation so it's gone. --LaserLegs (talk) 13:14, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
Claims of "under charging" Sam Adam Jr
editI removed the claim of "under charging" from flamboyant criminal defense attorney Sam Adam Jr since he was not involved with the trial and has no evidence only speculation. WP:BLP applies. --LaserLegs (talk) 13:28, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
