JUSTICE AND RECOVERY FOR JASON RIOS
On May 14th, approximately 5:00pm , my brother Jason Rios asked my mother for permission to go dine at our Local Watts Habit Burger Grille at Freedom Plaza for his 15th birthday. He sat down at the outside patio to enjoy his meal. While being so happy he could now go out on his own , he was attacked by 4 adults. They struck him in the head, instantly making him black out and fall out of his chair. They continued to beat and kick his lifeless body for no apparent reason while no one interviend. The suspects fled and left my brother for dead. He managed to call my mother, losing consciousness and the ability to speak. His brain began to swell and the blood flooded his brain. He is currently fighting for his life in a deep sleep and oxygen pumping into his lungs after his surgery . He is a straight A student, who enjoys building computers and gaming, who did not deserve this. I am here asking for justice. The funds will be used to get a lawyer to purse attempted murder and cover my brothers future therapy. As well as pursing legal action for the lack of security at The Watts Freedom Plaza and the Housing Authority of The City of Los Angeles New Harvest Projects. Where it is known for accidents like this to be swept under the rug and get no media coverage.
THANK YOU I NEED MY WATTS COMMUNITY TO STAND UP.
