by mesha Monge-Irizarry (iolmisha [at] cs.com)

On June 29 2004, Gus Rugley, 21 yr African American Youth was shot more than a hundred times on Alemany Boulevard, San Francisco, after what SFPD described as a high speed chase. According to the corporate press, Rugley would have opened fire at a police car. However, the autopsy report released nearly 9 months after Rugley's homicide, revealed that he had no gun powder traces on his skin or clothing, therefore Gus could not have used a weapon. The toxicological screen also revealed that Gus Rugley was not under the influence of alcohol or any drugs at the time of his death.

Samuel Martinez, 34 years, father of two children, was shot and killed by a San Jose police officer, Friday, May 27, 2005 at 3:00 a.m. in the 2000 block of Countrywalk Circle in North San Jose.
Too many people from the Mexican community have been killed by the San Jose Police unnecessarily!

24 yr. Salvadoran Everardo Torres was fatally shot by Officer Maricela AKA Marcie Noriega on 10-27-02 who "mistakingly" shot Everardo in the chest but meant to grab her taser instead...
This is virtually impossible since there is a safety devise on tasers preventling its release by possible assaillants, therefore at least 2 maneuvers to release tasers.
Everardo's case will be heard in Federal Court in Fresno on Augusr9,2005. This website is gathering community support for the Torres family, and to protest in fromt of Fresno Federal Building on the court day !
