Death of Yong Yang underscores professionals’ inadequate initial response – The Korea Daily
The case of Yong Yang, a 40-year-old mentally ill Korean American who was shot dead by an armed Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officer, has raised
The family of Yong Yang, a Korean American man who was fatally shot by Los Angeles Police Department officers during a mental health crisis in 2024, has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit.
According to the family, Yang was in the midst of a mental health episode when officers responded.
The lawsuit alleges that less-lethal options could have been used to de-escalate the situation, and that the use of deadly force was unjustified.
A vigil was held to mark the second anniversary of the incident, as the family continues to seek accountability and reforms in how law enforcement handles mental health calls.
This case highlights the ongoing national conversation about police interactions with individuals experiencing mental health crises.

“6 Seconds to Fire, 2 Years of Grief… Justice for Yong Yang is Still Pending. 🕯️⚖️”
On the 2nd anniversary of Yong Yang’s tragic death, his family and community leaders gathered in front of the LA Federal Building to demand accountability. “Justice is seeing the officer who killed my brother go to jail,” cried his twin brother.
📍 Key Points from the Rally:
✅ A Father’s Agony: Dr. Min Yang pointed out that while the family waited hours for help, the LAPD took less than a minute to decide on a lethal entry.
✅ 6 Seconds: It took only 6 seconds from the moment the door opened to the fatal shots. A “completely unnecessary” tragedy.
✅ Systemic Failure: Attorney Dale Galipo criticized the lack of prosecution and the “culture of protection” within the LAPD.
The first federal court hearing is scheduled for May 8th. We must keep our eyes on this case to ensure that no more families have to endure such a loss.
“A badge is not a license to kill those in crisis. Stand with the Yang family for systemic change. 🕯️👇”

Emily Wu Truong This might have happened to Yong Yang if he went along with the mental health crisis team or the cops. I gave into the 5150 because I didn’t want to die by cop. 💔💔💔 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1543469110873183&id=100056303274658&mibextid=wwXIfr
Emily Wu Truong He did not die in vain! I went to Yong Yang’s funeral to support! I also continue to share Jazmyne Ha Eng’s name. $1.8 won’t ever bring her life back. 💔💔💔 https://theappeal.org/a-green-light-for-abuse-despite-reforms-california-counties-still-conceal-records-on-police-use-of-force/
