'Nightmares like you've never seen': Anger, grief, and petitions at site where Oakland teacher was killed
Briefly

Pastor James Polk of the Greater House of Prayer responded to a tragic incident where a fleeing driver killed Marvin Boomer, a well-respected teacher. Faced with the grim reality, Polk prayed over Boomer's body at the scene before being troubled by his encounters with authorities, particularly a CHP officer. Despite reassurances about the nature of the chase, Polk later felt deceived when he saw videos contradicting the officer's statements, leading to feelings of anger and disbelief in the community mourning Boomer's loss.
Last night I couldn't sleep, man. With nightmares like you've never seen.
The officer looked Polk in the eye and said, 'Oh, absolutely not.'
