Almost 40,000 people have signed a petition asking San Francisco city agencies to reopen the investigation into the death of a 20-year-old gay man, while the offices in question deny accusations that they didn't do a thorough job.
Angie and Jim Sales launched the petition following the death almost two years ago of their son, Jaxon Sales. He died March 2, 2020 in a Rincon Hill apartment, according to a copy of the medical examiner's report obtained by the Bay Area Reporter.
The Sales family is alleging that the San Francisco Police Department and the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner didn't do due diligence in investigating the circumstances of Jaxon Sales' death.
They are currently "in the process" of securing an attorney and are planning on filing a complaint before March 2 of this year, according to Angie Sales.
