JUSTICE FOR ABELINO CORDOVA-CUEVASIn 2016, Abelino (28) was allegedly driving erratically when Stockton officers Matthew Garlick and Lucas Woodward initiated a traffic stop. Abelino ran from his vehicle and fought with the officers, who used physical force and a stun gun while taking him into custody. When he was being handcuffed, they noticed he was unconscious. Emergency medical personnel performed CPR and took him to a hospital, where he later died. The autopsy indicated that the cause of death was “mechanical asphyxiation”. The case was initially marked a homicide by the pathologist, then an accident by the coroner, and changed back to a homicide 2 years later upon further attention to the case. Yet, no charges were filed against the involved officers.
