Family of Antioch man who died days after police restrained him seeks to change cause of death
Briefly

"Every level of legal criminal system that we have encountered, we have seen countless avenues for (police) officers to avoid accountability," says Bella Quinto Collins, Angelo's sister. This highlights the family's arduous struggle to navigate a legal system that appears to protect law enforcement.
"That the death certificate accurately reflects what killed Mr. Quinto," explains Ben Nisenbaum, an attorney for the Quinto family. The distinction between accidental death and homicide is critical for accountability.
"How can we gloss over the fact that the people responsible for taking photos at my brother's autopsy, were an Antioch police detective and DA hand-in-hand?" This underscores concerns regarding the integrity of the investigation.
"If we cannot question the death certificate by the sheriff (in Contra Costa County), then the sheriff is above the law." Robert Collins emphasizes the problematic nature of unchecked authority in the justice system.
