Keisha Michael, 31, a single mother of three boys and Marquintin Sandlin, 32, a single father of four girls are both described as devoted parents by their families.

Reports state that the couple was unconscious in a car when police approached and saw a gun. Mayor James Butts has stated that police tried to awake the pair for about 45-min before action was taken, but a woman near by said there were inly seconds between a police order and gunshots.

The LAPD and the mayor have both declined to comment on the details of this murder, but Mayor Butts says someone must have felt threatened to result in their deaths.

Although a gun was present, the mayor and police have acknowledged that the couple remained asleep during the entirety of the incident. There is no way someone who is asleep can be a threat causing such deadly force to be taken. Police have a lot of explaining to do!
