"Hello, my name is ________, and I am calling to urge...
(Attorney General Hector Baldernas OR Governor Michelle Lujan-Grisham)...
to open a full investigation into the state-sanctioned murder of Rodney Applewhite...
Rodney Applewhite was a former National Guard service member traveling from Indiana through New Mexico to visit his family in Arizona when he was killed by New Mexico state police in Los Lunas under unexplained circumstances. His family and community deserve immediate answers and an investigation into his killing. I'm calling that all officers involved in the shooting be held responsible for this tragic loss of life, and fired immediately.
The people of our community do not feel safe under the heels of New Mexico State Police Officers. The State Police Department must take meaningful steps to prevent excessive force, including shootings motivated by racism from happening in order to truly serve our community.
Thank you."
