Prominent civil rights attorney Ben Crump has said that he’ll be leading the charge in the legal battle for Randy Cox, a Black man who was seriously injured while being transported in the back of a police van in Connecticut when the driver braked suddenly.
On Tuesday, the lawyer joined Mr Cox’s family in a press conference in front of the New Haven Superior Court, alongside the team’s co-counsel, Jack O’Donnell and Louis Rubano, and civil rights advocates in the city.
