New Suit - Wrongful Death

Taylor & Ring sued the County of Los Angeles, Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon and other defendants on May 3 in California Superior Court for Los Angeles County. The lawsuit was brought on behalf of Sasha Santana, Jayde Santana and other plaintiffs over the death of their family member Joseph Santana, who was fatally shot while working as a police officer. According to the complaint, Santana’s shooter had a previous gun possession felony. The suit pursues claims that defendant Gascon failed to follow a state law regarding repercussions for gun possession felonies, which would have placed Santana’s shooter in prison and prevented Santana's death. Counsel have not yet appeared for the defendants. The case is 23STCV09936, Santana v. County of Los Angeles.
