Clinton R. Allen, 25, was shot and killed on March 10, 2013, in Dallas, Texas. Known as Big Baby, he was a son, brother and father to twin boys. Officer Clark Staller of the Dallas Police Department shot Allen seven times during a confrontation at an East Oak Cliff apartment complex; one shot struck Allen at close range in the back. The encounter began after a disturbance call, and officers say Allen and Staller struggled, with Allen allegedly choking the officer. Staller deployed a TASER twice before firing. Toxicology later showed PCP in Allen’s system.

The shooting drew protests and outrage from Allen’s family and community. His mother, Collette Flanagan, formed Mothers Against Police Brutality to push for criminal law reform and an end to police violence against Black people. A Dallas County grand jury declined to indict Officer Staller in October 2013, and he was also cleared in an internal police probe.

If anyone knew Clinton, his movements that day, or witnessed the encounter, can you share what you know?
