GCCI urges peaceful protest

The Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) stands in solidarity with all those who
are peacefully demanding accountability and justice for the senseless murders of Joel and Isaiah Henry,
and now Haresh Singh.

The pain, anger and frustration are evident and understandable. However, the GCCI strongly
condemns destructive elements, and all those who attempt to further inflame an already volatile
situation, either through words or actions.

Those who attempt to exploit the rightful outrage over the Henry boys’ death by engaging in violence
and other destructive activity should be held accountable and dealt with under the law.
As we seek justice, let us recognize that it is critical for communities and law enforcement to work
together. We call on the public to protest peacefully and respectfully and to desist from engaging in
any activity that will endanger the lives of fellow citizens and encumber law enforcement from
continuing its investigations.
