Let\u2019s stand with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Listen. The only justice we get is the justice we fight for.<\/strong>&nbsp;We\u2019ve seen that it takes millions of people signing, sharing, and making phone calls in order to get families even a tiny piece of justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sean was only 22.<\/strong>&nbsp;He was fiercely loyal and cherished by his family and friends. He loved to make art and fix cars. He worked with Latinx youth in the community and cared deeply for others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>His very last text to his sister was a petition to get justice for George Floyd.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He was unarmed and cooperative, but Vallejo police officer Jarrett Tonn shot Sean five times from behind the windshield of an unmarked police car. It\u2019s one of the worst police shootings we\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sean deserved to live.<\/strong>&nbsp;We\u2019re asking you to join Sean\u2019s family and legal team to demand justice. When you add your name here, you\u2019ll join this new team we\u2019re building to fight for Sean, ok?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/go.theactionpac.com\/go\/686?source=ema20200610-324&amp;t=3&amp;akid=324%2E3821512%2Eq16HGn\"><strong>If enough people get on board, we can pressure key elected officials and the Vallejo Police Department to fire, arrest, and charge officer Jarrett Tonn for the murder of Sean Monterrosa.
