It was one of the defining moments of Marcelle's political life, as she had previously pushed for officers to be equipped with body cameras should this exact situation arise. She was furious when BRPD Chief Carl Dabadie said the officers' body cameras fell off during their struggle with Sterling.

She became both protester and leader — protesting what she sees as a systemic problem of police brutality against black people and also asking those around her to remain peaceful.

"People were looking for somebody to stand up and there was nobody else there," she said. "If I would have waited two or three days to show up, the city would have been destroyed."

Unfortunately, people will believe her delusions of grandeur. She's going to be in shock if she becomes mayor that the police dept will hate her guts.

Not sure if true or not but I heard she went to the wake of one of the fallen officers & was escorted out by BRPD as soon as she cleared the door.

What Denise doesn't understand is that I was hoping for martial law

she handed out paper fans at Sterling's funeral saying "when will it end" on one side and "special condolences to the family and friends of Alton Sterling, donated by La. State Rep. C. Denise Marcelle" on the other side.


Passing out campaign propaganda at a funeral. Classy.

I wouldn't go so far as to say she caused their deaths but she certainly contributed to them. If I was a BR cop, I wouldn't give her the time of day. She gets the luxury of of saying it was a mistake to bring the rhetoric to that level (which I'm not sure she has) but the cops pay for it in blood. While she's scoring political points with the dregs of society, the police get to dodge bullets.
