Seeking Justice For My Son

HELLO.  MY NAME IS DAN UNGER.  GOING BACK INTO TIME TO 2012 I WAS GETTING BETTER  AND WAS VERY HAPPY BECAUSE I WAS GETTING MY LIFE BACK TO MAKE ACTION FILMS. THEN, ON NEWS YEARS  DAY AT 12:O1 AM  MY SON WAS ON HIS COMPUTOR  AND HIS LIFE CHANGED FOR EVER WHEN HIS RIFLE FELL OVER BLOWING  HALF HIS FACE OFF.  HE BLAMED HIMSELF FOR MY SET BACKS. I COULD NOT GO BACK TO DOING HOLLYWOOD FILMS BECAUSE I NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF HIM, AND FIND A NEW PLACE TO LIVE WITH A DEADLINE OF 9 DAYS.

AS A FATHER, I WAS JUST HAPPY MY BOY WAS STLL ALIVE. WE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO MOVE AND PICK UP A JOB WORKING AT O RIELLY AUTO PARTS.   

OVER THE YEARS MY SON BLAMED HIMSELF BECAUSE I WAS NOT WORKING MAKING ACTION FILMS BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.  MANY TALK  SHOWS  SAID THEY WOULD HELP HIM  BUT THAT NEVER HAPPENED SO HE GOT REALLY  UPSET.  PEOPLE MADE FUN OF HIM EVERYDAY SO HE STARTED TO NOT THINK RIGHT AS DEPRESSION SET IN. MY SON TOLD ME," DAD,  YOU HELPED MANY ACTORS OVER THE YEARS.  HOW COME THEY ARE NOT HELPING US NOW?" I TOLD HIM THEY CANT SEE THE PAIN WE ARE DEALING WITH EVERYDAY." HE SAID, "I'LL PUT THIS IN THEIR MINDS. MY SON ACTED OUT. THIS IS WHAT SET HIM OFF.  A WELL KNOWN TALK SHOW PROMISED ME A SPOT ON THEIR SHOW BUT NEVER  KEPT THEIR WORD.  CERTAIN CELEBRITIES MADE PROMISES TO HELP WHICH THEY NEVER KEPT WHICH ALSO DROVE MY SON  OVER THE EDGE.

MY SON, PATRICK, CAME UP WITH A PLAN THAT I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT. HE WANTED TO PUT THIS PLAN IN HOLLYWOOD'S  MINDS SO I COULD GET BACK INTO FILM, AND MY SON COULD SEE A DOCTOR SO THEY COULD FIX HIS FACE, WHICH HAD BEEN BLOWN HALF OFF IN AN ACCIDENT. 

ON THE NIGHT OF DEC 7TH, 2013 MY SON  WENT OUTSIDE AND OUT OF FRUSTRATION SHOT TWO ROUNDS IN THE AIR. HE WAITED  FOR POLICE TO COME. ALL HE WANTED WAS TO MAKE A SCENE TO TELL HIS STORY SO PEOPLE WOULD UNDERSTAND THE PAIN HE WAS IN AND HELP HIS DAD GET BACK INTO HOLLYWOOD. HE DID NOT WANT TO DIE.

WHEN THE POLICE ARRIVED THEY ORDERED HIM TO PUT THE GUN DOWN ON THE GROUND AND HE DID. MY SON SURRENDERED. HE WAS UNARMED. ONE POLICE OFFICER SHOT HIM ANYWAY IN HIS RIGHT HIP. AT THIS POINT HE WAS IN TOTAL SHOCK. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE LOOK ON MY BOY'S FACE AS HE YELLED, "WHY?  WHY?  I GAVE UP! YOU SHOT ME!  POP! POP! HELP ME! POP!" THEN  MY BOY WAS CUT DOWN IN FRONT OF ME. HE WAS SHOT ONCE IN THE RIGHT HIP. THEN, 51 MORE TIMES  KILLING HIM DEAD...THEN THREE COPS JUMPED ON TOP OF HIM  BEATING HIM AND YELLING AT HIM, "PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK  STOP RESISTING!  TO ME,  THAT WAS JUST FOR SHOW  BECAUSE BY THAT TIME  THEY KNEW THEY MESSED UP, AND THEY STARTED TO COVER THEIR ACTIONS.  I RAN OUTSIDE YELLING AT ALL THE COPS.  THEY ALMOST KILLED ME. I SAID," WHY DID YOU SHOOT MY BOY? YOU REALLY MESSED UP!  ONE COP SAID, WHY? WHY, BECAUSE HE WAS UNARMED! HE GIVE UP AND THEY KILLED HIM ANYWAY. 

I LOST MANY THINGS IN MY LIFE,  AND LIFE DOES GO ON, BUT THE LOSS OF MY SON OVER WHAT THE POLICE DID IS WRONG. SO I'M HONORING MY SON'S MEMORY BY HELPING  ALL VICTIMS  OF CRIME AND VICTIMS ALL OVER THE WORLD.  THE KILLING HAS TO STOP. THE FUNDS WILL BE USED TO HELP VICTIMS  IN NEED OF HONORING MY SON'S  GOOD HEART AND WILL HELP ME TO PUT MY SON TO REST. 

PLEASE SUPPORT MY CAUSE.  ALL MY SON WANTED WAS TO TELL HIS STORY  SO WE COULD BE A FAMILY AGAIN, TELL HIS STORY TO THE MEDIA, AND HAVE DOCTORS STEP UP TO HELP, AND TO HAVE HIS FATHER BACK IN ACTION FILMS.  MY SON WATCHED TOO MANY COPS RELOAD. THIS IS WHERE HE GOT THIS IDEA, AND FROM MANY HOLLYWOOD STARS THAT CRIED OUT FOR HELP. MY SON DIDN'T WANT TO DIE.  HE JUST WANTED TO BE NORMAL AGAIN. 

NOW, ITS TIME TO SEEK JUSTICE AND CLEAR MY SON'S GOOD NAME AND HEART. HE WAS A VERY KIND BOY AND WOULD HELP ANYONE IN NEED. MY BOY WAS JUST LIKE ME IN SO MANY WAYS.

I NEED TO MAKE A FOUNDATION IN MY SON'S NAME TO HELP OTHERS IN NEED.  AND THATS WHAT I'M GOING TO DO. MY SON DIDN'T HAVE TO DIE. THE POLICE CAME HERE TO DO ONE THING, NOT TO HELP, BUT TO KILL.

IT WAS 20 DEGREES OUTSIDE THAT MORNING. THE COPS WERE VERY COLD. THEY JUST WANTED TO GET THIS OVER WITH TO GET BACK IN THEIR WARM COP CARS.  THEY DID NOT CARE. THEY SHOT AND KILLED MY BOY.  JUST TO ASK QUESTIONS LATER.  IT'S WRONG NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT THIS. THE BOTTOM LINE IS COPS ARE SUPPOSE TO BE HERE TO PROTECT US. WE ARE THE ONES WHO PAY THEM THEIR CHECKS.  THE GOOD COPS  THAT NIGHT KNOW IM TELLING THE TRUTH. BUT THEY WILL NOT COME FORWARD. BECAUSE THEY WANT TO KEEP THEIR JOBS. THE BAD COPS NEED TO BE TAKEN OFF THE STREETS. THEY NEED TO BE RE- TRAINED AND LEARN HOW TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS, ESPECIALLY BEFORE THEY SHOOT, ESPECIALLY WHEN SOMEONE IS UNARMED AND SURRENDERS.  NON-LETHAL MEANS THIS SHOULD HAD NEVER HAPPEN TO MY SON. 

IM NOT HAPPY HOW MY SON WENT ABOUT THIS, BUT I UNDERSTAND WHY.  HE WAS JUST SO HURT INSIDE. HE BLAMED HIMSELF AND PUT HIS LIFE ON THE LINE TO GET HELP FROM THE POLICE, NEWS MEDIA AND HOLLYWOOD.  IF EVERYONE WOULD HAVE KEPT THEIR WORD,  THIS WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED. 

FROM ACTION STAR DAN UNGER  IN/CO  MY SON PATRICK HEKI UNGER. GOD, HOW I MISS HIM.

PLEASE HELP ME FIGHT FOR JUSTICE, FOR MY BOY AND ALL VICTIMS OF CRIME.  WE NEED TO ALL STEP UP AND TRY TO PUT A STOP TO THIS KILLING, SO NOONE HAS TO EXPERIENCE THE DEEP UNBEARABLE PAIN OF LOSING A CHILD THROUGH NEGLIGANCE. THANK YOU AND WARM REGARDS, DAN UNGER
