This open discussion follows the tragic death of Jean René Junior Olivier, a Black man with mental health issues, who was killed by Repentigny police two years ago. Our goal is to collectively reflect on the problems of police violence against Black people with mental health issues and to propose solutions to improve law enforcement response in such situations.
