In the early morning hours of September 2, 2012 Mario Romero was brutally killed by the Vallejo Police Department as he and his brother-in-law sat in front of their home on their way to return to their wives and children. However, before they were able to leave their car, they were sprayed with bullets by bloodthirsty police officers on a mission to seek and destroy. The Vallejo police officers admit they never identified themselves, never asked for a driver’s license, insurance or registration. Instead. they told the men to raise their hands at the same time they fired upon them with brutality that mirrored the actions of Nazis. The officers reloaded round after round into their clips as witnesses screamed for them to spare the lives of these two innocent men. They continued to spray the car with bullets, living out a scene from a video game, jumping up on the car’s hood.

The community of Vallejo is outraged by the excessive force that has been used on its citizens and all of the distortions in the stories. The police have attempted to paint this man as a drug dealing gangster with ties to a neighborhood that he had just moved into in an attempt to smoke screen a murder that they commited. They stole his body from the scene of the crime and have held it hostage from his loved ones. They have intimidated the San francisco Bay Area media by telling them not to cover the rallies on the front porch of the Vallejo Police Department filled with hundreds of saddened citizens in fear for their safety. They did not allow Mario’s mother to see the body of her brutally murdered child for almost a month.

Derrick Jones was shot to death on November 8, 2010 by Oakland Police Officers Eriberto Perez-Angeles and Omar Daza-Quiroz.

Jones was unarmed when he was shot. Officers said they saw a metal object in his hands, which they believed was a weapon. This morning, Oakland Police identified the object as an electronic pocket scale.

Perez-Angeles and Dara-Quiroz were both involved in a previous shooting incident on July 19, 2008 that resulted in the death of Leslie Allen, according to records from the Oakland Police Department and the Alameda County District Attorney.

The Jones shooting is being investigated by the Alameda County District Attorney’s office, as well as the Homicide and Internal Affairs sections of OPD. District Attorney’s reviews often take several months to complete, and have been known to stretch on for years.  Former Chief of Police Batts asked the FBI to investigate the shooting.

Perez-Angeles is the fourth current member of OPD’s SWAT team to be involved in an officer-involved shooting since 2003, according to OPD records. Both he and Daza-Quiroz remained on paid administrative leave, which is standard practice after an officer-involved shooting.

From the February 2011 Alameda County DA’s report on the shooting of Derrick Jones:  “There is a lack of evidence to support a prosecution against eitherofficer. This office will take no further action.”

Just after midnight on Saturday May 6th, Alan Blueford and two of his friends were waiting for some girls to pick them up on 90th Ave., in East Oakland, after the Floyd Mayweather fight. Not long after Alan had phoned his parents to check-in with them, a car slowly pulled up to them with its lights off. Alan ran. One officer gave chase. A few blocks later Alan was shot by OPD officer Miguel Masso. Masso also shot himself in the foot. Over a dozen witnesses all said that Alan had no weapon and posed no threat to the officer.

Why did the police approach Alan and his friends with their lights off? Why did they give chase when Alan had committed no crime and posed no threat to the officer? Why was Alan shot three times when he had no weapon? How did a trained officer shoot himself in the foot? From the witnesses’ statements, why was Alan not given emergency CPR by OPD? Why did the OPD change their story to the family several times in the days after the shooting? Why have they refused to release the coroner’s report, despite the fact that it has been
complete for weeks?

The family has gotten nothing but lies, distortions and stalling from the OPD. The Blueford family and the Justice 4 Alan Blueford Coalition are demanding:

• Officer Miguel Masso be fired and charged with Alan’s murder.
• OPD Chief Howard Jordan be held accountable for
  lying to the Blueford family.
• An end to stop-and-frisk and other police practices
  of racial profiling.
• The repeal of the Police Officers’ Bill of Rights, that shields violent cops from prosecution and keeps them on the street.
