Following the killing of Aaron “Jay” Danielson, state and federal police launched a manhunt for Michael Reinoehl. Officers on a U.S. Marshal’s task force eventually shot and killed him. For Laura Kealiher, the police shooting reinforced her belief that police are not trying to solve her son’s killing, but can dedicate resources to other cases.
In some ways, Sean Kealiher’s homicide has remained a mystery because people closest to him have long declined to talk publicly about what happened the night he was killed. For the first time ever, two anti-fascists who were with Sean the night of his homicide tell their side of the story.
