New Book “No Justice,” the Story of Robbie Tolan, Who Was Shot By the Police… Survived and Won a 10-Year Battle in Supreme Court
In the early morning hours of December 31, 2008, in a quiet Houston, TX suburb, Robbie Tolan’s life was changed forever. Mistakenly accused of stealing his own car, while it was parked in his own driveway, Tolan, a young black man, was shot in the chest by a white police officer…the bullet ripping through one of his lungs before lodging in his liver. The entire incident unfolding right in front of Tolan’s horrified parents.
