Josh Shapiro too cowardly to denounce racism against slain white officer

Philadelphia police officer Shane Seiber was laid to rest on Tuesday, less than two weeks after he was allegedly shot and killed by Eric Lewis while answering a call in West Philadelphia on Oct. 10, shortly before 1 a.m. Lewis, a black man, allegedly revealed later that one of the reasons he shot Seiber — and his partner, who survived the attack — was that they were white. He allegedly went so far as to tell a black female police officer that if she had been the one who responded, he wouldn’t have shot her and instead “would have just had a conversation.”
