Family demands answers in Cassandra Boskofsky ’s disappearance outside APD headquartersANCHORAGE, Alaska - Displaying red hand prints over their mouths as they protested in the rain, nearly five years after Cassandra Boskofsky disappeared, her loved ones and supporters used the symbol of the Missing and Murder Indigenous Women Movement to protest what they say has been Anchorage police’s negligence and mishandling of the case outside APD headquarters.
Boskofsky-Grounds was among the crowd Friday holding various signs calling for accountability while chanting from across the street of the APD headquarters downtown. “I think that the public needs to know that APD ignored this case for so long,” Commack said. “They need to be held accountable, whether it’s in court, or they publicly acknowledged what they did, but this can’t be swept under the rug because it just shows how little they care about missing and murdered Indigenous women.”
