The lawsuit filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court docket this week alleges that the safety guard who initially intervened to interrupt up an assault on David Gutierrez by 4 suspected gang members “did nothing to look after” him after the preliminary assault, leaving him weak to the second assault moments later that led to his loss of life. Police and the household say David had no gang ties and was focused as a result of he was sporting a crimson jacket to have fun the vacation, not as a gang shade.

“This should never have happened to David,” mentioned his mom, Veronica Gutierrez. “It’s just something that I can’t let go. Everything that is possibly in my hands, to hold every single person that was responsible for David’s death, is going to hear from me.”

Federal Realty Funding Belief, the company proprietor of Santana Row named within the lawsuit, didn’t return messages for remark this week. Allied Common Safety, additionally listed as a defendant, mentioned in an announcement that the corporate doesn’t touch upon pending litigation and declined to make clear whether or not the safety guard was an worker.

The lawsuit is the newest motion by the household to carry individuals accountable for David’s loss of life. David’s mom, stepfather and aunt have rallied upwards of two dozen individuals with handmade indicators and a bullhorn at quite a few court docket hearings, protesting what they think about lenient penalties going through the 4 juveniles and one 18-year-old grownup who’ve been charged within the case. In addition they have met with San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan and Police Chief Paul Joseph at their peninsula house and organized a gathering with state Sen. Dave Cortese.

David’s Feb. 14 assault was captured on surveillance cameras at Santana Row, an out of doors shopping center throughout from Valley Truthful in San Jose, the place the 5 had been additionally accused of beating up a person in a retailer there earlier that night. The video from Santana Row, performed throughout the assault trial of the three 16-year-olds, reveals 5 younger males method David who was toying along with his cellphone whereas awaiting his dinner reservation along with his girlfriend. His mother and father had dropped them off half-hour earlier. The video seems to indicate the 13-year-old taking the primary swing, adopted by the others knocking him down and beating him up.

The video additionally reveals a safety guard from El Jardin restaurant intervening and breaking apart the assault, then showing to return to the restaurant. The attackers flee.

Inside a minute, in response to a police affidavit, David is on his toes and encounters the 13-year-old close by. His girlfriend later informed police that David asks the teenager to battle “one-on-one,” the affidavit says. The 13-year-old initially declines, saying he already received his “hits in.” However when David presses the problem, the suspect pulls out out folding knife and stabs David within the chest, the affidavit says.

Throughout a current trial in juvenile court docket, two of the teenagers who fled earlier than the stabbing had been discovered accountable for each the Valley Truthful assault and the assault on David. The decide decided {that a} third teen who stood by and watched was not accountable for David’s assault, however had been concerned within the Valley Truthful assault.

The lawsuit accused Santana Row and the safety firm of failing to correctly practice safety guards, safe the premises and stop the primary and second assaults. The identical teenagers had been charged with beating up a younger man at Valley Truthful lower than an hour earlier and stealing his shoe, and the lawsuit claims Santana Row ought to have identified about it and been prepared to guard their prospects.

He believes the household is owned “$10 million at a minimum” plus punitive damages.

David’s aunt mentioned they may proceed the battle.

“We want to hold everyone and anyone that was involved responsible for the death of David, not just the individuals that attacked him, but also the people that didn’t help them,” Diana Gutierrez mentioned. “David’s life was too big for it to mean nothing. And trust me, they’re going to remember us. They’re going to remember David for the rest of their lives.”
