The Issue

We, the family and friends of Damond Lazenby Jr, urgently request your assistance in seeking justice for the mishandling of his case and the surrounding circumstances of his tragic death. It is with great concern that we bring to your attention several alarming inconsistencies that have plagued this case, demanding immediate action.

On December 31st  2022, Lazenby Jr's car was found parked on the side of the road with its motor running and keys inside. Despite these suspicious circumstances, no thorough investigation was conducted at the scene. Shockingly, his car was released to his father without proper examination or collection of potential evidence.

Furthermore, it has come to our attention that Damond Lazenby Jr's vehicle had expired tags and lacked insurance coverage at the time it was released. This raises serious questions about why law enforcement failed to address these violations appropriately or take them into account during their investigation.

To date, there has been no completed Coroner's Report regarding Damond Lazenby Jr's death. The absence of this crucial document only adds to our growing concerns about transparency and accountability in this case. We demand a comprehensive report be completed promptly by qualified professionals who can shed light on what truly transpired.

The mishandling of Damond Lazenby Jr's case not only undermines public trust but also perpetuates a system where justice is elusive for those who need it most. We firmly believe that every individual deserves fair treatment under the law regardless of their background or circumstances.

Therefore, we call upon Contra Costa County authorities to:

1. Launch an immediate independent investigation into all aspects surrounding Damond Lazenby Jr's death.
2. Retrieve his car as evidence for a thorough forensic examination.
3. Conduct a transparent review into why expired tags and lack of insurance were overlooked during the initial investigation.
4. Expedite the completion of a comprehensive Coroner's Report, providing accurate and timely information to his family and the public.

We urge you to take these necessary steps to rectify the mishandling of Damond Lazenby Jr's case and ensure that justice is served. By signing this petition, we stand united in demanding accountability, transparency, and fair treatment for all.
