As we observe Juneteenth, we join communities acro As we observe Juneteenth, we join communities across the nation in commemorating a defining moment in American history and celebrating the enduring pursuit of freedom, justice, and equality.
 
On June 19, 1865, 900 long days after the Emancipation Proclamation went into effect, enslaved people in Galveston, Texas were officially informed through General Order No. 3 delivered by General Granger and his troops that all slaves are free. Juneteenth symbolizes the end of slavery in the United States and stands as a powerful reminder that the promise of liberty must be continually and fervently advanced and protected.
 
This holiday honors the resilience, achievements, and contributions of Black Americans while inviting all of us to reflect on our nation's history and to recommit ourselves to the enduring principals of liberty and justice for all. 
 
As public servants dedicated to fairness and the rule of law, we recognize that trust in our justice system is built through integrity, accountability, and a commitment to treating every person with dignity and respect. Juneteenth provides an opportunity to learn, reflect, and engage in meaningful conversations about how we can continue strengthening those values in our lives, work, and in our communities.
 
Wishing you a meaningful #Juneteenth. Let freedom ring!

San Diego County District Attorney @summerstephan San Diego County District Attorney @summerstephan said today that the parents who starved to death their 3-month-old daughter and who were convicted of second-degree murder by separate juries at a trial in February, have been sentenced to prison.

Brandon Copeland and Elizabeth Ucman each were sentenced to 15 years to life in prison. 

“Baby Delilah entered this world healthy and full of promise and within three months she died of starvation at the hands of her parents,” DA Stephan said. “Cases that involve parents who harm their babies are haunting and our specialized child abuse prosecutor Franciesca Balerio fought to be the voice for this defenseless baby and to bring a measure of justice and dignity where none existed in her short life. Her parents chose to withhold the care every infant deserves, and because of that, baby Delilah never had the chance to grow or thrive. It’s time the defendants have the time to fully reckon with the consequences of their actions.”

Copeland, 25, and Ucman, 26, were arrested in November 2021 after police responded to their City Heights apartment following a report that their infant was unresponsive and in need of medical attention. Baby Delilah was transported to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead, and her parents were taken into custody shortly afterward.

The parents, who were 21 and 22 at the time of Delilah’s death, were tried in February in a single proceeding before two separate juries, with each panel responsible for determining the guilt of one defendant.

During the trial, Deputy District Attorney Franciesca Balerio told jurors that Delilah weighed only 3.64 pounds at the time of her death, less than half her healthy birth weight. With no underlying medical conditions, the evidence showed her death resulted solely from prolonged starvation and neglect. Starvation is slow, visible, and impossible to overlook. Delilah’s decline unfolded in plain sight, yet the defendants sought no help, provided inadequate nutrition, and failed to obtain medical care.

A man who brutally stabbed an MTS bus driver in A A man who brutally stabbed an MTS bus driver  in August 2024 nearly a dozen times as passengers looked on, has been sentenced to prison. 

Mario Felix, 51, who pleaded guilty to attempted murder in March, has been sentenced to 26 years in prison. 

“No one should fear for their life as they are performing their job, especially while they are in service to others as the victim was in this case by providing transportation to commuters,” District Attorney @SummerStephan  said. “Unfortunately, attacks on bus drivers and other transportation workers have increased. As District Attorney, I want these valuable workers to know that they deserve safety and dignity and attacks against them will be taken very seriously. I want to commend the victim for his courage in persisting in the pursuit of justice alongside our team despite all of the severe injuries from this vicious attack and the emotional trauma that this caused.” 

In August 2024, the MTS bus driver was making a stop at the Escondido Sprinter Station when Felix boarded the bus and asked for a free ride. When the driver told Felix that he must pay, he became enraged and demanded the driver’s wallet and threatened to kill him before unleashing a series of ferocious stabs, severely injuring the victim. 

Witnesses followed Felix and he was later arrested by police hiding behind a dumpster and the bloody knife was found nearby. 

Deputy DA Keith Watanabe and Deputy DA Miranda Tomaneng prosecuted this case with care and dedication. The DA victims services team provided support to the victim all along the way. 

The San Diego County District Attorney’s Office remains committed to holding violent offenders accountable and protecting those who serve our communities every day.
