Free the People Roc has led protests almost daily since Daniel Prude's death in police custody was revealed.

The group responded to news of Cynthia Herriott-Sullivan's appointment as the new interim police chief for the Rochester Police Department, saying it does not address what it calls deep structural issues in policing.

The group continues to demand Mayor Lovely Warren's resignation, among others, adding in part:

"Nothing short of a complete transformation will address the problems we see every day. Our demands are clear and Lovely Warren has done exactly nothing to meet the demands of the people."
