People came from up and down the San Joaquin Valley and beyond with stories about their family members encounters with the Police. We were also remembering those whose lives were stolen by Police, Everado "Lalo" Torres'(picture of family below) whose life was taken by a Madera police officer when she supposedly mistook her glock for her taser.

There was a brief rally at the jail, as families spoke with other families, and we made some noise for justice inside the jail and outside the jail walls.
