The Murder of June Knightly (2024)

Directed by Forensic Architecture

Documentary · 36m

On 19 February 2022, June Knightly and other members of an anti-fascist affinity group in Portland, Oregon were attacked by a right-wing extremist. June was murdered and four of her friends seriously injured. Despite knowing the attack was unprovoked, the Portland Police Bureau released an inaccurate statement suggesting the incident had been a confrontation between an 'armed homeowner' and 'armed protesters'. Forensic Architecture (FA) interviewed witnesses and survivors of the Normandale Park attack using a navigable digital 3D model of the scene, built from previously unpublished video of the attack recorded by one of the victims, drone images and video of the police response posted on social media.
