Justice for Joshua Flores
Donation protected
My nephew was shot by police one shot to the chest, he shouldn't had died in such a terrible way. He was so young and had so much left to experience. I'm so mad at the police and even more angry at the doctors. We took him to the hospital several times, we called the police for help on several occassions, my nephew was so scared of the things he saw and truly believed were there when they weren't. He was terrified. His mind played so many tricks on him. The police said it would be court ordered for him to stay at the hospital against his will because of how bad they saw him and how he was a danger to him self and others, But instead he was discharged from the hospital in just a few days. Which led to his death. The police in centralia all knew about Joshua's illness they seen him suffering and Joshua even called the police him self to have the cops stop the thing he saw in his attic (there wasn't anything, it was in Joshua's mind) the cops witness how bad things were for him and how scared he was. It should of been so they did something, tried to stop him, talk him down, and if it came to worse and they had to shoot why shoot directly to his chest. I just can't believe how much he had to suffer when he could have been helped by the doctors, My family and I tried everything we could but at the end we needed professional help and for them to let it get this far, I'm furious at the doctors and the police. He was only 18 why take his life. The police officer in the news said other people could have got hurt and that's why they shot, well no, the people were already out of danger and the police had the situation at the point where they shot. No one was in danger at that point they could have done more, not kill. This needs to change. I know there are many people who have gone through the same or similar situations. I would like justice. My family and I ask for your help. Every cent will be greatly appreciated. I love you Joshua Flores♡ forever in our hearts.
