Richmond Rally Marks First Anniversary of Pedie Perez Killing
Family, Friends and Supporters of Pedie Perez Continue Fighting for Justice
On September 12, about 60 people showed up outside Uncle Sam's Liquors in Richmond to remember Pedie Perez, who was shot dead there on September 14, 2014 by Richmond police officer Wallace Jensen. Although Jensen claimed that Pedie had tried to take his gun, witnesses dispute this, and the store's surveillance video shows that after a struggle on the ground, Jensen got up and backed away with his gun still holstered. He then shot Pedie from about six feet away. Police were unable to find any of Pedie's DNA on Jensen's belt, holster or gun.
