Vallejo Police Det. Jarrett Tonn shot Sean Monterrosa in the back of the head on June 2, 2020, amid wide-scale looting following the police murder of George Floyd in Mineapolis. Since then, Tonn's been fired — and soon likely rehired — and the California Attorney General is still deciding whether he'll face criminal charges. At the same time, Sean's sisters, Michelle and Ashley, are trying to avoid burning out while fighting for justice for Sean and on behalf of the dozens of other families impacted by police killings in Vallejo.  EPISODE: [scanner traffic] In the early morning hours of June 2nd 2020… caravans of burglars continued to break into businesses all over Solano County… stealing what they could… trying to get guns, pot, cash and prescription medications.  As police officers from across the area scattered throughout the city to respond to the roving thefts…  SCANNER: If anybody passes that, we're coming from Concord. …Vallejo Police Detective Jarrett Tonn… badge number 673 and a member of the department's SWAT team… was scared.  He'd heard ANTIFA was coming to town. TONN: And there had also been some online social media chatter about specifically those people and Antifa actually, coming into Vallejo to, to do violence and cause harm.   Shortly after midnight… Tonn and two other detectives witnessed a group of people breaking into the Walgreens on Redwood Street. Captain Lee Horton… badge number 5-43… told them to drive into the parking lot… as he went around the back… hoping to box in the looters.  As the detectives drove in… Horton warned over the radio… that the suspects could have weapons. HORTON: Wearing all black. It looks like they're armed. Possibly armed. Horton would later tell internal investigators… he broadcasted out that the subjects were possibly armed… because one of them had something in his hand. HORTON: I saw some kind of object in his hand but I couldn't identify what it was. That person was 22-year-old Sean Monterrosa… a first generation San Francisco native…and the son of Argentinian immigrants. A carpenter by trade… Sean had a roofing hammer tucked into the pocket of his hoodie. Video surveillance footage released by Vallejo police shows him trying to break into a locked cabinet in the Walgreens pharmacy… just minutes before he was killed.  SCANNER: Shots fired. Suspect down.  DISPATCHER: Copy. Shots fired, suspect down on Redwood.  Tonn… who had already been involved in three shootings since joining Vallejo police in 2014…  was sitting in the middle of the backseat of an unmarked pickup truck. Before it had even come to a full stop… he fired his high-powered rifle five times through the truck's windshield… hitting Monterrosa once in the back of the head…  killing him instantly. TONN: Hey, he pointed a gun at us.  TONN 2: Hey, he tried to pull a gun out on you know, pointed a gun at us.  Despite finding out that the suspected gun was actually a hammer… Vallejo internal affairs investigator… Detective Kevin Rose… badge number 680… let Tonn run with the idea that he found himself in immediate danger.  ROSE: Do you feel like you had any other options?  TONN: No, none whatsoever. ROSE: Were the suspects immediate actions prior to your firing your weapon indicative of any other action to you? TONN: The only thing and again, this is why I say, now that I know after the fact I'm 100% baffled of what could have happened. Everything he did at that time, and still my mind that was the actions of someone who is going to take you know, you know, attack us and try to kill us…  [fade under] Sean's death came in the middle of international protests over the police murder of George Floyd… which happend just a week earlier. Sean's killing thrust his older sister Michelle… and younger sister Ashley… first into a panicked rush for answers… and now a years-long quest for justice… that they're still figuring out how to sustain.  MICHELLE: Fuck the police, fuck the police, fuck the pigs, took my brother, too. And I don't want anyone to go through what we went through. Enough is enough…  ASHLEY: We just buried our brother yesterday…  The Monterrosa sisters vowed to be the last family to have a loved one killed by the Vallejo Police Department. Officers there have shot and killed 18 people since 2010.  As of this recording… current Vallejo Police Chief Shawny Williams… the first Black man to hold the seat… has managed to keep his officers from killing anyone for the last two years… something the department hasn't been able to do for decades.  But following the killing of Sean Monterrosa…  something different happened. KQED's THE BAY:  Ericka Cruz Guevarra: Vallejo police chief Shawny Williams has served a notice of intent to fire officer Jarrett Taan who shot and killed 22 year old Sean Monterosa in June of last year.  Sukey Lewis: This is a really big step for the city in terms of being able to point to something to show you know civilians who have been criticizing the police department and the accountability process that look we're firing moving to fire this officer who you know was involved in this very high profile controversial shooting. In December… Jarett Tonn became the first Vallejo police officer in at least 20 years to lose his job… directly related to killing someone on-duty. It was one of several reforms Michelle and Ashley are happy to see finally happening within the Vallejo Police Department.  MICHELLE: We've seen progress and it took a lot for us to step back and kind of analyze the wins the many victories and wins we've had in between, obviously, the Attorney General taking on the case was huge too, Tonn being fired is huge.  That was until last Friday… when sources confirmed to the Vallejo Sun that Jarrett Tonn is likely to get his job back… because a mandatory review hearing for law enforcement officers facing discipline… overturned his termination for use of force violations.  While the Monterrosa family was upset about Tonn returning to the Vallejo Police Department… they still await to hear whether he'll be charged with a crime.  MICHELLE: There's a lot of little things playing but I don't think the outcomes are any different, or demands are still always the same… the California DOJ can bring, go arrest him and bring those charges forward.  State Attorney General Rob Bonta agreed to investigate Monterrosa's killing… but only after his predecessor… Xavier Becerra… and Solano County District Attorney Krishna Abrams… both refused. BONTA: Jobs have easy parts and they have hard parts and it's really important that we do all the parts of our jobs. Sometimes a specific issue or case has a lot of public interest and public scrutiny, we must still do our job in those cases. The shooting remains a political issue in the hotly contested Solano County DA's race. Abrams' opponent… Chief Deputy DA Sharon Henry… says Abrams abdicated her responsibility. HENRY: Officer involved shootings, those decisions should be made by the local district attorney. If a shooting happens in Solano County, the decision should be made by the Solano County DA. My name is Brian Krans. I'm a reporter with the Vallejo Sun. In this episode… we're going to look back on the Vallejo police killing of Sean Monterrosa two years later…  ONE YEAR RALLY: Song: “...Sean Monterrosa…” We're also going to cover why the police killing is still a major political issue at the county and state level… and hear from the Monterrosa sisters about their fight for justice… while grieving in public… and still trying to find some semblance of normalcy in their lives. ASHLEY: We can scream and bleed and do whatever we can and sometimes they just won't even listen. And it's like we're screaming at a brick wall. Sometimes that's what it feels. Yeah.  MICHELLE: It's just a lot and you know, the system expects families to keep going, keep trying to like, find normality after all, all of this, and it's hard for everyone. Everyone interprets trauma differently. But it's just fucked up [laughs]. Yeah INTRO

This episode contains descriptions of police violence. After Vallejo police officer Jarrett Tonn shot and killed Sean Monterrosa on June 2, 2020, the Vallejo Police Department hired the OIR Group, a firm that provides independent reviews of police actions, to investigate what happened the night of Monterrosa's death. The findings of the yearlong investigation were released earlier this month. They conclude that the officers involved in the shooting failed to follow department policy and de-escalate the situation. In response, Chief Shawny Williams has served Tonn with a letter saying that he plans to fire him, though Tonn can still appeal this decision. Criminal investigators from Vallejo and the DA's office interviewed the officers, including Jarrett Tonn, after the shooting — and these recordings are now available. What investigators found provides some clues into Tonn's mindset on that evening, and why Vallejo PD has decided to fire him. Guest: Sukey Lewis, KQED criminal justice reporter and host of On Our Watch This episode was produced by Alan Montecillo, Ericka Cruz Guevarra and Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí, and hosted by Ericka Cruz Guevarra.

Michelle and Ashley Monterrosa, sisters of Sean Monterrosa, murdered victim of the Vallejo Police Department earlier this Summer, joined the Advocate Daily Podcast to talk about the love they hold for their brother and the strength his memory still gives them. There have been reports in the past that Vallejo PD officers bend their badges to signify having killed someone. Where can trust be found in a community when the police department acts as a cult rather than an entity to protect and serve ALL residents? The Monterrosa sisters harrowingly and passionately embark on a journey exploring Sean's last day, how his martyrdom inspires them to advocate for other persecuted souls, and why the system isn't "broken," it was built to protect the installation and ideology of white supremacy. A revolution is necessary. The Gathering For Justice's mission can be found here.

The family couldn't get any answers from the police that night. Instead, it took a day and a half for the police department to admit an officer had killed someone, and the police union filed a temporary restraining order to prevent the release of the names of officers involved. Later it was discovered that vital evidence, the windshield from the police car, had been destroyed, prompting an investigation by the California Department of Justice. Sean was shot less than an hour from when he sent his last text message to his sisters. Vallejo Police Officer Jarrett Tonn has been involved in multiple shootings in recent years. The Vallejo Police Department is currently under investigation for the alleged practice of bending their badges to commemorate fatal shootings, first reported by Open Vallejo. The Vallejo Police Department is the third most murderous police department in California. The following is an edited excerpt from a longer interview with Michelle and Ashley Monterrosa, Sean's sisters: ______ MM: I'm Michelle Monterrosa. I'm Sean Monterrosa's oldest sibling. AM: I'm Ashley Monterrosa, and I'm Sean's baby sister. MM: And we shared a bedroom with Sean. So no matter what, we were always very close. So we, even though we're all two years apart – AM: It felt like triplets. MM: Yeah. And my little sister, Ashley here, she's lived through Sean and I, you know, on what to do and not to do. AM: I feel like an old lady because I've lived through them that I know like, okay, I know what not to do. And I feel like I've lived so much through them. You know, for me being the younger sister, I was Robin and Sean was Batman. Like I was always with him. He was always on the driver's seat. And I was always on the passenger seat. And we were just always together. So, you know, there's nothing we won't do for Sean. And there's nothing I won't do for Michelle, and vice versa. Photo: Sean Monterrosa (center) with his parents Neftali and Laura MM: You can ask all his teachers, And a lot of teachers say we're not supposed to favor students. But all his teachers said that he was one person that shed such light. There was a light from him that…  It's one face you can never forget.  He read 50 books within one semester. It's hard enough to get kids in high school to even want to read one or two, right? But Sean kept telling her, I need more books, I need more books. Cause he was so… My dad reads and I think he – AM: He was hungry for knowledge. Always. MM: I remember his main books that we have at home was The 48 Laws of Power, the Malcolm X autobiography, Assata Shakur, you know, just literature related to social justice. He was always about empowering himself and empowering the people, but also educating himself on history that we're not taught. He always spoke for the voiceless. AM: And Sean would always take off his shirt to give to the next person and give his very last dime to help the other person. MM: And I do believe my brother came to this lifetime to fight. You know, his life was a fight every day. You know, being a young Latino man, you already have all adversities against you. AM: Yeah. MM: He was an awesome person. We got a text message from him at 11:49 for us to sign a petition – AM: On June 1st. MM: On June 1st, to get George Floyd justice. And we both signed it. So after that, we didn't think of anything. We were like, okay, he didn't respond, let's go to bed, right? I'm already asleep. And then this girl my brother had just met and started kind of talking to calls us saying Sean's dead, Sean's dead, hysterically crying. And after that call, I went and instantly got on my knees and prayed in the kitchen. My parents are asleep and they're freaking out, what's going on? And this is while we have curfew in place. AM: We weren't allowed to go out after 8PM. MM: And I said, forget the rules. It's Sean. I got to go figure out what's going on. So she had mentioned that it was Vallejo. And me and Ashley were like Vallejo, what are they doing in Vallejo? AM: And luckily we all shared, all three of us shared our locations with each other. So we thought something had gone wrong. MM: So we go over there. Me and Ashley however, the whole time we were driving out there, the whole time, we were sick. I've never felt so sick. And I do truly believe that you're connected to your loved ones. You know, you instantly feel when something's not right. And my stomach was upset. I wanted to throw up the whole night. AM: Yeah, the entire drive to Vallejo, even before getting on the Bay Bridge, Michelle wanted to throw up. And for me, I had really strong stomach pains, like really bad. MM: And we've never felt like that. And I truly believe maybe it was his spirit letting us know. AM: And just the nerves overall cause we didn't know what we were going to encounter once we got there. MM: So we didn't get many answers there. We knew that the police murdered Sean. We didn't know how. We just knew that – AM: It had happened. MM: It had happened. But we all know at the end of the day, my brother wasn't over there looking to go shoot a cop or anything, you know. AM: He didn't even have a gun at the end of the day MM: And you know, nothing, nothing in this world will make sense to why Jarrett Tonn did what he did. AM: He was shot in the neck and out the head. They flipped him over and handcuffed him and kept my brother in handcuffs until the paramedics came. MM: And it just goes to show how fearful these cops are when unarmed Black and brown men are, you know – AM: Even dead, you're still scared of them. MM: You're so scared of them. You still have to handcuff and knowing that you already have… That entry wound, we all know it. There's no really survival chances, you know. And that's something that still hurts. They didn't give him a chance. AM: The car didn't even stop. Jarrett Tonn was in the backseat. There was no reason for him to quote, unquote, fear for his life. “At the end of the day, Jarrett Tonn cannot be the executioner, cannot be the judge to take my brother's life. Whatever my brother was doing, it's not punishable by death. And it just hurts.” – Michelle Monterrosa MM: At the end of the day, Jarrett Tonn cannot be the executioner, cannot be the judge to take my brother's life. Whatever my brother was doing, it's not punishable by death. And it just hurts. But I promise, I promise to never stop fighting for Sean and the other voiceless in Vallejo. AM: You know, Sean's a martyr now. And martyrs never die. And, you know, Sean died for a bigger cause. MM: And it just goes to show at the end of the day that my brother's name will not die in vain. And I feel like my brother, with his last text message, it was a message to us to continue to fight. ______ This story is part of the series TAKEN FROM US: Remembering lives lost to police violence.
