Donna Parks -- whose son, a friend of Henry's, was shot and wounded in the incident -- disputed the police account in an interview with CNN shortly after the shooting. She said that Henry and others in the car were waiting for a friend to come out of the establishment "when a police officer banged ... on the window." She said Henry began driving after her son, Brandon Cox, told him that he thought police wanted him to move his car.Cops fuck up, murder someone, then the police unions comes in for protection.
"Another police officer with his gun drawn just ran out in front of DJ's car," said Parks, insisting that Henry had no time to stop. Parks also said that authorities pulled Henry out of the car, placed him in handcuffs and left him facedown on the ground for 15 to 20 minutes, not realizing that he had been shot. The attorney for Hess acknowledges the error but said, "The tragedy of D.J. Henry's death cannot and should not be distorted to pursue an agenda which ignores the sad and painful truth that a 20-year-old man who by all accounts was a good and decent human being made very, very poor decisions that night and morning that brought about his own death."
