A Sacramento judge has approved a $2 million settlement for the children of a man shot to death three years ago by a Sacramento police officer at an anti-gun boxing event.
The settlement comes on behalf of two children of Augustine Morales, a 38-year-old Sacramento man shot Nov. 14, 2020, outside a Juliesse Avenue warehouse where 400 to 600 people had gathered for an event called “Gunz Down Gloves Up: North Side Edition.”
The event was designed to bring young people together for a night of boxing and raise awareness of gun violence.
