- BOLO Notice for Joseph Ferrario
- Description
- On July 17, 1983, Officer Joseph Ferrario fired at a fleeing juvenile suspect, missed, and fatally struck Marilyn Banks, an innocent bystander. In response, the Organization for Black Struggle formed the Coalition Against Police Crimes and Repression (CAPCR) to demand greater local control and accountability. This BOLO flyer of Joseph Ferrario was created and distributed by OBS as part of the protest activities aimed at ensuring police accountability and finding justice for Marilyn Banks.
