Civil rights attorney Ben Crump (shown on Aug. 10 with Tasheta Motley, the sister of Alvin Motley Jr.) said that a judge’s decision to delay release of a video in the death of Motley Jr., “further delays the clarity, transparency and answers” sought by family members and the community.

Judge cites need to “protect the right of the accused to a fair and impartial preliminary hearing” and to “promote public trust in the integrity of the criminal justice system.”
