Graphic and more below.

The memorial sign dedication ceremony honoring Ah Zet Khan and Za May Khan, two children killed near 14th and Yosemite in a still unsolved March hit and run, is emblematic of numerous disturbing car-pedestrian incidents that have taken place on metro-area roadways of late.

McCracken apparently realized the results wouldn't be favorable: He resigned an hour before the panel would have lowered the boom on him.
