CLEVELAND, Ohio In light of the ongoing trial of Cleveland Officer Michael Brelo, Cleveland pastors Monday will ask for calm and order regardless of the verdict.
A press conference was held at 1 p.m., and pastors spoke on the situation.
We are aware that forces outside and inside of our city are working to bring a negative view of Cleveland to the rest of the world. We want to stress how important it is for all of us to remain in a state of calm as we dialogue and respond to whatever the decision of the court, Pastor Larry Harris, President of United Pastors In Mission, said in a press release.
Brelo, 31, faces two counts of voluntary manslaughter for the November 2012 shooting deaths of Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams.
Ping and FYI
Riots, riots, riots, all across the nation. Exactly what odumbo and his ilk have been promoting since day one. I hope the pastors have a bit more clout with their people than odumbo has.
