During the same discussion, frustration was expressed about Andrew Holmes being labeled a rapist and Dolton Police’s involvement in the shooting death of 19-year-old Alexis Wilson. The incident occurred in July 2021 when police were called to a restaurant drive-thru.
Dolton police released video footage of the incident, which showed Alexis Wilson striking the drive-thru window with an object. Subsequently, the police instructed her to exit the car, but she expressed that she was not appropriately dressed.
