Policy change would allow loved ones to gain some insight into what led to deaths or injuries
Sundee Weddle has many questions about what happened to her son Saxon Rodriguez on July 20, 2021. That’s the day the 22-year-old was found dead in a San Diego jail from a fentanyl overdose.
Weddle said that when she has called the department with questions, she has been referred to the legal office and no one picks up the phone.The Sheriff’s Department says it has had a family liaison protocol in place since August 2019, but as Weddle’s experience suggests, the protocol may not have always been followed.
The review board’s role is limited to advising the sheriff on policy changes, meaning the department is not required to accept recommendations. Tammy Wilson, whose husband Omar Moreno Arroyo was arrested by sheriff’s deputies after she called 911 early last year seeking help for him, was kept waiting outside the Men’s Central Jail in downtown San Diego all night, even though Arroyo died in custody hours earlier.
“I have never heard that a family was contacted upon the conclusion of an investigation and provided an opportunity to learn its results and have their questions answered,” he said.
