[Gay City News] Four years later, Kawaski Trawick’s family demands accountability at NYPD HQ

Rickie Trawick, the father of the late Kawaski Trawick, stood in front of NYPD headquarters on April 12 and pointed to a sign with the names of the police officers who killed his son.


“I want them fired,” he said. “New York City is not safe with these two officers.”

Rickie and Ellen Trawick were standing together as part of a rally to demand justice and accountability nearly four years to the day when they learned that their 32-year-old son, an out gay man, was shot to death by police officers who entered his home without his permission.
