I myself live only 45 minutes away from Bakerfield and 3 yrs ago my good friend was shot and murdered by 3 police officers in the city of Porterville because of a minor traffic violation on his bike.. I understand this is may be old news but this needs to stay in the limelight. These types of tragedies are becoming all to common in the valley and something needs to be done. Spread any findings you guys come across through the web or hell picket this shit. If you live in Bakerfield sign any petitions you come across stand outside of the precinct and demand justice fuck asking.

It's time people wake to reality. Police have got out of control, more like gansters with mind controlled brains, Corrupt and intimidating.

Experienced and seen things myself with the corrupt justice system hear in europe. Time to fight back! But how? Hope things get better.

Rest in peace.

Wow, nice job PD, nice job, he was riding home at night, last time I checked, lots of people walk around at night, go catch the real criminals, not a man charged with possession of video games. And for the people insulting the mother, her and her family are very nice people, her son was killed. Show respect.

For too long now the Porterville Police have taken it upon themselves to decide when to kill. They are not following any civil rights laws or protocols. I have heard them put down the city of Porterville and the people. Some of them act like spoiled young boys with their first gun. The whole force and their actions for the last 10 years should be privately investigated before more innocent lives are taken.

The police officers should be investigated. They should have never shot him. I didn't know Vincent but he sounds like a very good person. As a mother myself that is one of my worst fears. They have harassed my son before and he is a good person who is never in trouble or has been in trouble with the law. My heart goes out to the family. May Vincent rest in peace. God Bless.

Since when do police shot first then ask questions? Did it occur to anyone that someone may suffer from a mental illness and/or not have the ability to understand what is going on?

Seems to me he was trying to get away from the police something else could have been done, but not this senseless killing!

I have often wondered if something like this could happen to her. Now I am scared as hell. My daughter is lower functioning than Vincent so maybe the police would recognize more easily.

Why do police officers find it so 'EASY' to pull out their guns? The victim was unarmed. Are they not taught self-defense? Were they actually afraid for their lives by the victim...not as described by his family. He was afraid of the officers...when a person is scared for fear of being harmed, they run. Officers are appointed to serve and protect...not GUN PEOPLE DOWN.

I think the cops should be charged, there is no reason to kill somone for a traffic violation.

Police are trained to handle these situations without killing. If they had been filming an episode of cops that night , we would still have our beloved vince
may the cops rot in hell who did this.

Is it the few who commit the crime, or the many whose silence allows its reaccurrence truly the unjust?

If men and women of small weight, stature, and life experiences are going to be hired as police officers, they should be trained on how to handle people larger than themselves without the use of deadly force. Had the officers taken the time to talk to Vince's mother, throught this through, hadn't been scared of Vince and kept their guns where they belonged, he would still be alive to put that light on his bike!

I am just saddened that these children had to lose their lives before SOMEONE, ALL OF US, to decide to do something about it!!!My condolences to the families.

How many has there been? What fear does a policeman have of his life, when the victim is running away from the officer and still shot in the back? Maybe the offficers need to get in better running shape huh? There is no excuse to shoot a person in the back, or anywhere for that matter! In times of war, they didn't shoot a man in the back! My condolences to the families of Vince & Zack.

This affects all of us and this tragedy should never have happened and certainly should never be repeated. We all need to pull together and make the scales of justice swing level. Nobody is above the law! I will be the counter-weight that tips the scales level along with anyone who will join me. So... Who's with me??
