Families of unarmed men shot by cops still hoping for justice

Cecil Sampat with his niece last Christmas.

About a week before the fateful shooting that has changed his life, Winston Fraser and his wife were talking about having children.

However, Fraser, one of the two unarmed men shot by police either during or after a car chase on the morning of July 25th, is currently paralysed and doctors have advised that there is a 50% probability that he will die if surgery is attempted to remove the fragments of a warhead lodged near his spine.

“One minute you planning and the next…,” said his wife, Ditra Walters.

Walters has been out of work for several months as Fraser’s injury left him solely dependent on her and his mother to take care of him.
