Why Stephon Clark's Death Is Having Serious Mental Health Impacts — Especially On His Brother Ste’Vante [capradio.org]

 

Ste’Vante Clark has seemed consumed by grief since the March 18 shooting of his younger brother Stephon Clark. At the funeral, he took the microphone and led the crowd in a fierce chant of his brother’s name. When his rage subsided, he became anxious and fidgety.

“They’re talking about walking me out already, they’re talking about kicking me out of my brother’s funeral,” he told attendees at his brother’s funeral. “They’re all in here for money, the Christians have never looked out for us, nobody’s ever cared about black people but me.”

Sonia Lewis said her cousin Ste’Vante Clark recently checked himself into a local mental health facility for a few days. She said he’s out now and doing well.
