ACLU of Wisconsin Executive Director Dr. Melinda Brennan released the following statement regarding the shooting: <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> “We are aware of the fatal civilian shooting by Columbus, Ohio Police that took place in the King Park neighborhood, approximately a mile away from the Fiserv Forum, well outside of the RNC security perimeter. As we wait for more details to surface, we're calling for a full and transparent investigation into what exactly led to the shooting, including the swift release of any bodycam footage pertaining to the encounter. More than 4,000 additional law enforcement officials are in Milwaukee for the RNC, and we've long feared how this heavy police presence could increase the risk of deadly police encounters, especially by out-of-state officers who don’t know and aren’t accountable to our community. We offer our condolences to the friends and family of the person killed.” The Milwaukee Area Investigative Team will be investigating the incident. The Greenfield Police Department will be the lead law enforcement agency in this investigation. The Milwaukee Police Department held a press conference on Tuesday to provide an update.

Unless you’re someone with a deep (pun intended) fascination with the world’s bodies of water, it might be a challenge to fathom just how far down they can go. You can fish on the Great Lakes, go boating, swim, and partake in water sports, all the while enjoying the spectacular views they provide. But how deep is each one? You’d have to dive hundreds of feet below the surface to reach the bottom of each. How many hundreds of feet, though? And how can we truly understand how deep?
