“A family in Rumford, Maine, is grieving the loss of two sons. They claim one was accidentally shot and killed by his older brother. That same older brother was shot and killed by a state trooper Wednesday.” –WGME (September 14, 2023)
[Please note how WGME dehumanizes the young man who was shot by the trigger happy SWAT teams in rural Maine; he was accused of manslaughter but the entire family agreed it was an accident and the son who was involved was devastated, grieving, and traumatized.]
