SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) The Sacramento District Attorney s Office has dropped charges against Sean Monterrosa s sisters. Monterossa was killed by a Vallejo police officer in June.
In October, officers arrested his sisters, who were protesting outside Governor Newsom s home. Michelle and Ashley Monterrosa say charges against them have now been dropped. I m just happy we re putting this behind us, said Ashley Monterrosa. It s one of those things that it took too long but, you know, at the end of the day, we re going to keep doing whatever we can to make sure my brother s story is known, but we re relieved to know that s not something over our shoulders anymore, said Michelle Monterrosa.
