DESCRIPTION:FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\nWednesday, June 10, 2009\nContact: Frank 
 916/821-6823\n\nATTN: Daybook/News Desk\n\n\nShooting death of Latino in 
 Woodland\nsparks new protests as ‘gang injunction'\ncourt case set for 
 yet another hearing Thursday\n\nWOODLAND – Community organizations 
 representing Latinos who feel "harassed"\nby Yolo County law enforcement 
 – heightened after the controversial\nshooting death of Luis Gutierrez 
 – will hold a news conference here\nTHURSDAY prior to a hearing 
 concerning the so-called "gang injunction"\nsought by the District 
 Attorney's office.\n\nThe news briefing will be held THURSDAY, June 11 at 
 8:30 a.m. in front of\nthe courthouse in Woodland (3rd and Main 
 Streets).\n\nA hearing on the gang injunction, originally filed in 2005, 
 will be heard\nat 9 a.m. Thursday. The community is represented by a dozen 
 pro bono\nlawyers, which have submitted more than 100 statements by 
 citizens saying\nthere is no need for the injunction.\n\nThe DA has failed 
 to submit any declarations proving the need for 
 the\ninjunction.\n\nCitizens claim they don't fear gangs as much as they 
 fear law enforcement\nin Yolo County, and that the real reason public 
 officials here have fought\nfor years to get a so-called "gang injunction" 
 is not to combat crime, but\nto seize the property of low income residents 
 for redevelopment.\n\nThe groups charge the alleged crackdown on gangs is 
 unnecessary and that\nthe injunction has led to harassment and racial 
 profiling in the Latino\ncommunity. Residents maintain the injunction 
 targets innocent victims and\nviolates the constitutional rights of 
 everyone.\n\nResidents have also exposed a pattern of harassment by members 
 of the West\nSacramento Police Dept. of residents of West Sacramento who 
 are active in\nthe anti-injunction battle.\n\n-30-\n\n\n
