The court proceedings surrounding Hall's potential early release drew protests from the families of victims, including Jennifer Leong, whose brother was shot by Hall. Leong expressed that faith in the justice system was renewed through the hearings, despite the ongoing pain caused by the deaths of Arboleda and Wilson. The death of Wilson, who was homeless and struggled with depression, was connected to Hall's actions, yet he faced no charges for that. Family members described the day as significant but lacking celebration, highlighting their ongoing quest for justice.
"At the end of the day, my brother is still not here. Tyrell Wilson is still not here. The lives he took are still not here. He should do his parole the whole time; he was convicted," Jennifer Leong, Arboleda's sister, told KQED.
"It's not a happy day. It's not a day to celebrate. It's one part in this journey that's been in the interest of justice and fairness and objectivity," Bella Quinto Collins, the sister of Angelo Quinto, who Antioch police officers killed in 2020, told KQED after the hearing.
"It was extremely entitled of Hall, who has been remorseless from the get-go, to even request an early release from a parole that was only two years."
