Downey CA - May 15, 2004
Family and friends held a
candlelight vigil outside the Downey Police Station to mark the police killing of Gonzalo Martinez. Words of grief, encouragement and now finally solid hope were exchanged. Yielding to community outrage and new counsel the court has overturned Downey’s killer cop prosecution immunity opening the way for legal action. In yet another development in the case Downey P. D. will probably be ordered to hand over June 3rd crucial police cruiser videotape currently being withheld from the Martinez family.
Norma, Gonzalo’s mom speaking of the tape release ,said the following, “I think that the judge is going to grant this and then everybody is going to see what they really did to my son, how they brutally killed my son…”
Next month Gonzalo’s parents, Norma and Norberto will be going to New York to continue their petition for justice in the murder of their son before the United Nations and Organization of American States.
