OAKLAND PARK —The death of Corey Jones and the climate of distrust between police and citizens were the topics of a three-hour discussion Sunday night that started with a candlelight vigil.
“We feel your pain, we don’t understand it all, we’re here to have a conversation … so that we never go through it again,” said program organizer Scheril Murray Powell, addressing several relatives of Jones who were sitting in the audience at the Ambassador Seventh-Day Adventist Church on Oakland Park Boulevard.
