A popular DJ in Oakland who left behind four children and was known for his community activism was one of four people killed over another violent weekend in the city.
"Every individual who falls victim to violence or harm in Oakland is an unequivocal tragedy, but the profound impact of losing a father, a pillar of our community, and a cherished neighbor resonates on a deeper level," community activist Seneca Scott said in a statement.
"The fact that this tragedy unfolded during the same weekend when our Mayor dismissed urgent pleas for assistance in addressing the escalating violence and crime as mere ‘political theater’ exacerbates the pain and frustration we feel, adding insult to the raw, open wound we collectively share.
