Vice president called for donations to Minnesota Freedom Fund
amid George Floyd riots
A Minnesota bail fund championed by Vice President Kamala Harris
helped free a repeat felon now charged with murder.
The Minnesota Freedom Fund on Thursday acknowledged it helped
secure the release of Shawn Michael Tillman, who in May shot and
killed a passenger on a rail platform in St. Paul. Harris
promoted the Freedom Fund on Twitter during the George Floyd
riots in 2020, helping the group raise $35 million in a matter
of weeks, according to the Washington Post.
Freedom Fund executive directors Mirella Ceja-Orozco and Elizer
Darris defended the group's decision to post Tillman's bail in a
statement Thursday, saying, "It is neither just nor effective to
respond to violence by denying bail and preemptively punishing
people who are disproportionately poor, Black, brown, and
Indigenous."
Tillman's criminal record includes multiple counts of indecent
exposure, as well as assault and unlawful possession of a
firearm, court records show. He is now in custody with bail set
at $2 million.
When reached for comment, the Freedom Fund directed the
Washington Free Beacon to its statement.
Tillman's most recent felony conviction was in November 2018 for
indecent exposure in the presence of a minor. He had seven prior
counts of indecent exposure at the time. Ceja-Orozco and Darris
said convictions play into their decision to fund those charged
with crimes. They did not list any of Tillman's past convictions.
Tillman is not the first person to commit murder after being
bailed out by the Freedom Fund. The group helped free a man
charged with domestic abuse last year. Weeks later, he murdered
another man in a road rage incident, the Free Beacon reported.
The group also shelled out $75,000 in cash to release Jaleel
Stallings, who was charged in May 2020 with attempted murder
after shooting at police during the Floyd riots.
Minneapolis saw the highest number of homicides last year since
the mid-1990s.
