A San Francisco mother continues to seek justice for her son, who was killed in 2006, and on Wednesday San Francisco leaders were by her side as she spoke at an event.
It was an hour of remembrance, but also a call to action as Paulette Brown spoke to a crowd at the intersection of Grove and Baker Streets, as she continues to search for justice for her son.'My son's case isn't solved. It is a cold case ,' said Brown.Aubrey Abrakasa was shot and killed at that intersection on Aug. 14, 2006.He was just 17-year-old at the time. Ever since that day, Brown has not stopped pushing for answers and accountability.
'To me it's inspirational what she and this family have been doing for so long over the years, almost 20 years, 18 years anyway. That they've never given up and they're out there supporting not only their own family but other families who have lost their loved ones to violence, particularly gun violence,' said SFPD Police Chief William Scott.Several other mothers of children murdered in the city also spoke at the event.
