#CORONA WEATHER THE NEXT 7 DAYS TRIAL#

A cold front is on its way to shake up our pattern and bring some mild weather for the start of September. If you want a break from hot and humid afternoons, then you also have a reason to look forward to next week. If you are enjoying the heat, then you have something to look forward to next week: highs stay in the upper 80s for quite a while. I’m sure you’ve noticed some consistency in our weather the last few days. Kenneth French was shot once in the shoulder and three times in the back, while his mother was shot in the back, and her husband was shot in the abdomen, resulting in the loss of a kidney.Our pattern lasts a few more days before a shakeup next week Store security surveillance tapes showed the victims backing away from Sanchez when he fired. Russell and Paola French said they pleaded with Sanchez not to shoot, telling the officer that their son, who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and was largely nonverbal, was ill. But the victim was not armed, according to police.

Tapes from body-worn cameras of Corona police officers who went to the scene captured statements from Sanchez indicating that he initially believed Kenneth French was holding a weapon. No one has disputed that, for reasons still unknown, Kenneth French shoved the off-duty lawman to the ground.Īccording to Sanchez's civil attorney, David Winslow, his client was dazed, and when he saw his son next to him screaming, he 'had no choice but to use deadly force.' The victims were shopping when they approached a food sample table with sausages, where the defendant was also standing, holding his then-18-month-old son. A Los Angeles jury in November 2021 ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, awarding them $17 million. The French family filed a lawsuit against the LAPD, the city of Los Angeles and Sanchez at the end of 2019, alleging negligence and civil rights violations. In the summer of 2020, the Los Angeles Police Commission determined the Costco shooting reflected unjustifiable use of force, and Sanchez was booted out of the Los Angeles Police Department a month later. The Riverside County District Attorney's Office in September 2019 took the matter to the 19-member county grand jury, and jurors declined to indict Sanchez. When he announced criminal charges against Sanchez last summer, California Attorney General Rob Bonta said the case was about 'pursuing justice' and reaffirming the principle that 'nobody is above the law.' I tried to feel for a pulse, but there was no pulse.'Īccording to Corona police investigators, only Sanchez was armed and fired 10 shots from his off-duty pistol. Then he appeared to stop bleeding, and there was no more labored breathing. I took his right hand and tried talking to him, but he didn't respond. I stayed with him for five or 10 minutes. There was like a tremor every now and again. 'There was blood coming out of his right ear. 29 at the Riverside Hall of Justice.ĭuring testimony last week, witness William Gagnon described the aftermath of the shooting, saying that because of the volley of gunfire, he initially believed there were 'two shooters.' The judge scheduled a post-preliminary hearing arraignment for Aug.
