3 Northern California law enforcement officers charged in death of man held facedown on the ground
apnews.com/article/california-police-charged-mario-gonzalez-death-3dd7a9d1ada9311f0c75ac3a6f7ea09f
Quick Glance: Charges Brought Against 3 Officers in California Man's Death
- Three law enforcement officers face legal charges regarding the passing of a man in Northern California who was restrained facedown on the ground for an extended period.
- The Alameda County District Attorney's Office announced the filing of involuntary manslaughter charges against the officers on Thursday, coinciding with the third anniversary of Mario Gonzalez's demise.
- Following a thorough examination of the case, the current DA's office, under Pamela Price, proceeded with the charges in efforts to restore faith in a justice system that has not consistently been equitable to Alameda County residents.
- While one of the trio of officers is no longer part of the department, the remaining two have been put on administrative leave. The legal representative for the officers criticized the charges, labeling them as politically driven, while no immediate statements were provided by the police department, police union, or Gonzalez's family lawyers.
