The family of a 13-year-old boy from the San Fernando Valley who was murdered earlier this year has filed a legal claim against the city and county of Los Angeles.
The boy’s body was found on the side of a road in Oxnard in April after he had been reported missing.
The alleged killer, 43-year-old Mario Garcia Aquino, who was the boy’s soccer coach, has been charged with one count of murder with the special circumstance allegation of murder during the commission or attempted commission of lewd acts with a child.
Garcia Aquino killed Oscar on March 28 in Lancaster and dumped his body in Ventura County, prosecutors allege.
