Danny Buckley was a 61 year old father, brother, and cherished friend. A lifelong resident of Baton Rouge, Mr. Buckley was known and loved by many. Mr. Buckley’s life was senselessly stolen from him on August 22, 2020, in the parking lot of Trader Joe’s in Baton Rouge, LA.
Mr. Buckley’s family is reeling from this sudden and tragic loss. Unable to privately grieve the death of his father, Mr. Donell Buckley, has been forced to publicly advocate for the arrest of his father’s murderer instead. This weekend, the local news attempted to paint Danny as an aggressive black male, with an extensive criminal record, who deserved to be killed. Despite statements by witnesses, the Baton Rouge Police Department also allowed Mr. Buckley’s killer to walk free Saturday night. While his family focuses their attention on getting justice for Danny and defending his legacy, they are asking for the community's help with his funeral expenses.
All funds raised in connection with this fundraiser will go directly to Mr. Buckley’s son Donell Buckley.
