Email script, send to: MHestrin@rivcoda.org and cc his assistant Sharon Henrichsen at: SHHenrichsen@RivCoDA.org

On december 15th, 2020 Ernie T Serrano was shopping at a local stater bros market when a manager called the police in an attempt to remove Ernie from the store. Once Jurupa Valley Sheriffs arrived, they began to tase and beat Ernie with a baton. Shortly after restraining him, Ernie began to lose consciousness and died from positional asphyxiation on register aisle 2 inside the store, around 8:30 pm.

Dear Mr. Hestrin,

My name is [     ], and I am a [resident of Riverside County / concerned community member]. I am contacting you today because it has come to my attention that it has been a year since Ernie T Serrano was killed by Jurupa Valley Sheriff's department and the officers involved have not been charged. As a member of the Riverside community, I am calling to demand that the district attorney conducts a fully transparent case and holds all the officers involved accountable for the actions that resulted in the death of Ernie Serrano. If the district attorney’s office mission is to ensure public safety to the community, then the officers involved in the murder of Ernie Serrano must be held accountable so that the same result does not continue to occur.

Sincerely,

[name]
