When HPD killed Jalen Randle, the east Houston community of Pleasantville lost a son
When Houston police officer Shane Privette shot Randle in the neck, Pleasantville lost a son. It lost a father and a youth sports coach. It lost an amateur veterinarian, a man who loved dogs and would help his friends give them shots when their own pets got sick.Narcotics officers were searching for Randle to arrest him on charges of aggravated assault of a family member and evading arrest, officials said.
Joseph immediately rushed to the scene — Pleasantville is small, and shootings aren’t common. He had a feeling the incident involved someone he knew, and recognized Randle’s friend, the driver of the SUV, amid a swarm of police. Officers wouldn’t answer his questions, so he began calling his friends around the neighborhood. Randle was the only one who wasn’t picking up.
Randle’s friends have not yet allowed themselves much time to cope; they say they will do that once he receives justice. Instead, they set about going door-to-door on the block where he was shot, reviewing doorbell camera footage and organizing protests. They wanted to give Randle’s parents and 5-year-old daughter, Jaylaa, time to grieve.
“The grieving process is working to create change, so that his name is the last one we’ll have to protest behind,” saidIn a country that has seemingly grown all too used to police violence, more than 400 people have been killed by police this year, according toBill Thompson fills a gatorade cooler during football practice Thursday, June 2, 2022, at Judson Robinson, Sr., Park in Houston. Thompson said he was a good friend of Jalen Randle who also helped coach the children.
