(HARTFORD, CT) – Governor Ned Lamont released the following statement in response to the defacement of the City of Hartford’s Black Lives Matter mural on Trinity Street, which was found with graffiti depicting a swastika and a coded message of white supremacy:
“I am beyond disgusted to learn about the graffiti that was left overnight on Trinity Street. These do not represent Connecticut values, and all of us as a community need to take a strong stance to denounce any messages advocating hate and white supremacy. We will not be threatened by the messages of anonymous people who attempt to divide us and instill fear. I appreciate the work by the Hartford Police to investigate this crime.”
