SPECTRUM NEWS
AUSTIN, Texas – Based on a tragic true story, “The Killing of Kenneth Chamberlain” premiered at this year's Austin Film Festival.
Despite the efforts of Kenneth Chamberlain Sr.'s family, the officers involved in his killing never faced criminal charges.
“We’re going on eight years now, I have not mourned my father's death," said Chamberlain Jr. "I have not because there's been no closure in order to mourn. There needs to be closure. I don't have closure because the city refuses to acknowledge criminal wrongdoing. So, it will always be hard, it will always be difficult. And I don't think that I'll ever have closure. Maybe one day, peace of mind. But I hope to one day mourn my father's death the right way.”
