The 35-year-old was fatally shot by police on Jan. 3 after he allegedly stepped toward officers with a sharp metal object.
Sanchez’s brother, Ysidro Leon, said at a press conference Sunday that Sanchez’s struggles with depression intensified after the death of their mother three years ago. Leon wore a t-shirt with his brother’s image on it Sunday.
“He was going through a mental health crisis and we know this department is ill-equipped ... to respond to mental health crisis and especially when it involves a Spanish speaker,” Contreras said Sunday. Organizers and family of Oscar Leon Sanchez come together for a photo outside of LAPD Newton station on Sunday.
Sanchez’s family is demanding the LAPD immediately release all officer-worn body-cam footage as well as the names of the officers on scene.
