The Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center and Smile Politely have launched a Web site dedicated to the Kiwane Carrington case, the 15-year-old shot by the Champaign police in early October.

Champaign Citizens for Peace and Justice is also a collaborator.

The Web site communicates a timeline of events and documents pertaining to the incident last October, including Illinois State Police investigation documents. It is intended to be a permanent home for documentation of the incident including photos, audio and video clips and articles. Items are arranged in a timeline format for ease of use and linear clarity. Many documents are concentrated on October 9, when the incident occurred.

The site includes a newly released interview with Deborah Thomas, who lives at 906 W. Vine St., the house that Carrington was shot outside, and the house that Carrington had been staying at frequently.

The Web site can be found at http://timeline.chambana.net
