Justice for Anthony McClain: Family Sues Pasadena Over Wrongful Death - 08/28/2020

In a significant turn of events covered by ABC7, the family of Anthony McClain has taken legal action against the City of Pasadena following his fatal shooting by a police officer. The incident, which occurred earlier this month, has sparked widespread protests and raised serious questions about police conduct and civil rights violations. Reporter Sid Garcia brings us live updates from outside the Pasadena police headquarters, where the family's legal team has announced the filing of a claim. The lawsuit alleges wrongful shooting and excessive force, challenging the police department's account that McClain was armed. According to the family's attorneys Luis Carrillo and Michael Carrillo, what the police claimed to be a weapon was, in fact, McClain's belt buckle. They strongly refute the assertion that McClain posed a threat, emphasizing that he was shot in the back and was unarmed. The case has prompted calls for an independent investigation by the Attorney General's office into the Pasadena Police Department's actions. The family seeks not only to clear McClain's name but also to hold the authorities accountable for what they believe was an unjustified use of lethal force. As the Pasadena Police Department continues its investigation and the officer involved remains on administrative leave, this video delves into the complexities of the case. We explore the impact of McClain's death on his family, the community's response, and the broader implications for police accountability and justice in officer-involved shootings. Join us as we follow this unfolding story, seeking to understand the truth behind Anthony McClain's tragic death and the fight for justice led by his family.
