From left, Concerned Citizens of Saginaw representative Gary Loster, Pastor Cervin Merrill, Bishop Zachary Williamson and Tanya Welch talk to Matthew Frey (the white guy), Republican candidate for Prosecuting Attorney, outside the office of Saginaw County Prosecutor Mike Thomas. They were hoping to hear a decision from Thomas in the Milton Hall shooting case. Hope on folks! From [HERE] Because a new witness of the fatal police shooting of Milton Hall came forward today, the investigation is not yet complete, said former Saginaw Mayor Gary Loster, who spoke with Saginaw County Prosecutor Michael D. Thomas.
Thomas told reporters gathered in the courthouse on Tuesday morning that rumors of a press conference regarding the Hall shooting were not true. The July 1 shooting is under investigation under the direction of the prosecutor with assistance from the state attorney general's office, with a separate review underway by the U.S. Department of Justice. "We did not have a press conference scheduled. The investigation is not complete, there was no press conference scheduled," Thomas said in a hallway of the Saginaw County Governmental Center, 111 S. Michigan in Saginaw. He did not provide further comments.
Two employees on the fourth floor of the courthouse, where conference was rumored to take place at 9 a.m., said the conference was cancelled the day before. One employee said at 5 p.m. Monday, workers learned the conference was cancelled, and another said he found out when he arrived at work this morning that the conference was cancelled Monday at 5:30 p.m
Tanya Welch, who was wearing a National Action Network T-shirt and pin, said she doesn't understand why staff at the courthouse said a press conference was cancelled if one wasn't scheduled.
"How do you say it wasn't scheduled when the whole building said it was cancelled?"
