As president of LULAC, attorney Domingo Garcia is calling for answers in the unjustified death of 14-year old Valentina Orellan-Peralta. This senseless death at the hands of the LAPD must end with justice for the family of Valentina.
“LULAC will not let her death become just another statistic.”

“It is indefensible that trained Los Angeles police officers could open fire in a crowded store at the height of Christmas shopping without first knowing for sure if (the suspect) was armed,” Garcia said in his statement.
“Too often and too quickly, officers are more prone to open fire in our neighborhoods,” he said, noting the store is in a predominantly Latino area. “Would they have done the same thing at the Beverly Hills Center in West L.A. or Westwood? We hardly think so.”
