Lawsuit on death of Cedric Lofton goes to trial The federal lawsuit centered on the death of Cedric ‘CJ” Lofton goes to trial this week.

✨ Honoring the Life of Cedric “CJ” Lofton ✨

Tomorrow, September 27th at 7PM, we will gather to honor the life and legacy of Cedric “CJ” Lofton — a 17-year-old weighing only 135 pounds who was held face down by five Sedgwick County Juvenile Intake and Assessment Center officers until he died in 2021. The Sedgwick County coroner ruled his death a homicide. Yet, despite this, no one has ever been arrested or prosecuted. CJ was experiencing a mental health crisis.

We will come together in love and remembrance with music, spoken poetry, and a moment of silence. This memorial service will be held outside the Juvenile Intake and Assessment Center (JIAC) — the same facility where CJ was murdered.

🕯️ Please bring your own candles, though some will also be provided.

📍 JIAC: 700 S Hydraulic Ave, Wichita, KS 67211

Let us join as a community to honor CJ’s life, demand justice, and carry his light forward. 💙🕊️
