COVER STORY
The Role of Interagency Collaborations in Reducing Gun Violence
By George Tita, K. Jack Riley, Gregory Ridgeway, and Clifford Grammich
On the Cover:
Angelenos gather at Delores Mission School in Los Angeles for the 3rd
Annual Victims’ Rights Vigil & Community Information Fair on Apr. 5, 2003.
Upper left: Law enforcement authorities observe a moment of silence.
Shown are Lee Baca, Los Angeles County Sheriff; Jim McDonnell, of the Los
Angeles Police Department; Debra Yang, of the U.S. Attorney’s Office; Earl
Thomas, of the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office; and Steve Cooley, Los
Angeles County District Attorney. Upper right: Los Angeles City Attorney’s
representative Maria Guerrero, second from right, consoles Maria Atilano,
far right, whose son was killed by gang violence. Lower left: Brenda
Florence, second from left, is a mother of three sons killed by random gang
violence.
Lower right: George Gutierrez, center, pushes a flag-draped mock coffin in
memory of his brother during a Los Angeles rally. The protesters demand a
greater police presence in the Boyle Heights neighborhood to reduce gang-related
shootings like the one that killed disabled veteran Robert Gutierrez
in front of his brother and young nephew.
