Rafael Peña was incarcerated and unfortunately was found dead in his cell on July 30th at Downstate Correctional Facility. Rafy was in a box for 2 months....23 hours on lock down with 1 hour only out of the box. We will never know how or why such horrific event occurred. We refuse to believe the answers that we are given which are barely none!!! Rafy left behind a 22 month old baby boy. We, the family are asking anyone who would like to help us please raise money so we can conduct our own private autopsy as too many young Latino and Blacks die daily under suspicious circumstances while under police custody or incarcerated. We just want answers!! Anything that can be raised is a great help and will be greatly appreciated.

Rafael Peña estaba cumpliendo una sentencia en prision y fue encontrado muerto en su celda Julio 30 2015 en la Correcional Downstate. Rafy estaba en una caja por 2 meses.....23 hours encerrado y 1 hora fuera de la caja. Nosotros la familia nunca sabremos como ni porque tan horrible evento sucedió. Nosotros estamos pidiéndole a que nos ayuden a recaudar fondos para poder realizaer una segunda autopsia privada ya que hoy en día tantos Latinos y Afro-Americanos mueren diariamente bajo circunstancias sospechosas cuando en custodia de la policia or mientras encalcelados. Nosotros solo queremos respuestas!!! Cualquier fondo que se pueda recaudar sera agradecido de todo corazon.
