HYATTSVILLE, Md. - s4story -- Police brutality must stop—immediately and without exception.

Mx. Shakira Lasisi, an African civil rights advocate and disabled civilian, has issued a direct and urgent public statement following a November 28, 2025 encounter with Bladensburg Police Department officers, including Officer Humphreys, Officer Merritt, and Officer Pichardo.

"I begged the officers to stop," Lasisi stated. "I told them repeatedly that I was disabled and that they were hurting me. They did not stop. They did not care."

Lasisi alleges that during the encounter, officers used force despite clear notice of her disability, causing severe physical pain and emotional distress. She further states that the conduct was intentional, excessive, and unnecessary.

"If this had been their own family member, their own mother, this would have been handled very differently," Lasisi stated.

Lasisi confirms that an Internal Affairs complaint—AR25-010—is currently pending and has remained unresolved since November 2025. The matter is being overseen by Lieutenant Brandon Goins. She asserts that the delay in resolution raises serious concerns regarding transparency and accountability.

In addition, Lasisi confirms that a federal civil rights complaint was filed this month, seeking full legal accountability for the actions taken during the incident.

"I did not come to this country to be subjected to force, ignored when I said I was disabled, or treated as though my safety does not matter," Lasisi stated.

Lasisi, who is also a mother, expressed deep concern about the broader implications of the incident.

"I am raising a Black son who once wanted to become a police officer. I would never want him to enter a profession where this kind of conduct is tolerated—where people are hurt, ignored, or mistreated because they are disabled, women, or part of the LGBTQIA+ community."

Lasisi is calling for immediate reforms, including enhanced training, stricter screening, and accountability measures for all officers.

"There must be real consequences for this kind of behavior," Lasisi stated. "There must be better screening, better training, and a system that does not tolerate harm against civilians."

Lasisi further calls for mandatory mental health evaluation standards and professional accountability measures across law enforcement agencies to ensure that officers are fit to serve and protect the public.

"This is about safety. This is about dignity. This is about making sure this does not happen again," Lasisi stated.

What this case exposes is a blatant hypocrisy—misconduct is condemned loudly in some cases and quietly excused in others. That is not justice. That is selective outrage. And until every officer is held to the same standard, especially Black and Hispanics, without exception, civil rights in this country remain compromised.

Lasisi confirms she will continue to pursue all legal remedies and demands immediate accountability.
