On July 1, 1993, at 2:57 p.m., downtown San Francisco changed forever.
Dressed in a suit and suspenders, Gian Luigi Ferri looked like any other lawyer walking into 101 California Street. He went straight to the elevators and hit the button for the 34th floor. When he stepped out, the attack began.
“By the time I realized this was for real, I just crawled under a desk and waited and watched while his feet went by,” one attorney told the San Francisco Examiner. People in the 48 floors of 101 California didn’t immediately realize something terrible was happening. At least one person, a Pettit & Martin partner named Brian Berger, called the firm’s upstairs offices to warn them. “I’ve been shot,” he told a co-worker. “Please call 911. There’s a madman down here.” Berger was wounded but survived.
Although his guns kept jamming, he had killed eight people in a matter of minutes. Along with Berman, Sposato and Scully, Shirley Mooser, 64, Allen Berk, 52, Mike Merrill, 48, Deborah Fogel, 33, and David Sutcliffe, 30, died in the attack.
