On May 19 Sgt. Michael Kunovich deemed him suspicious while outside the Super 8 motel parking lot. Aguilar Mendez was sitting down eating but started to walk away when the officer approached in his patrol vehicle.
Kunovich began to question him, but Aguilar Mendez couldn't understand him or communicate well and repeated that he was sorry. That's when Kunovich decided to search him, and Aguilar Mendez resisted.
Two other deputies arrived to assist in taking the 5-foot-4, 115-pound teen to the ground as Kunovich repeatedly stunned him with his taser, all seen on body-worn camera video.
Aguilar Mendez can be heard screaming for his family and is seen trying to gain control of the taser as the officers note in the video. Toward the end of the 6-minute scuffle, the deputies saw that their handcuffed suspect had a small folding knife and disarmed him.
Kunovich collapsed a short time later in medical distress and died at the hospital, the Sheriff's Office said.
Aguilar Mendez, who came here from Guatemala, was staying with other farmworkers at the hotel. He is being detained without bail, which is the subject of another hearing as yet to be decided. (source)
I'm going to need you all to start spreading awareness about this case and sign the petition. I'm a 5'4 woman and I weigh more than him. He's only 18, indigenous and doesn't understand English nor Spanish really. I can't imagine how confused and scared he was. Tased 6 times and apologizing repeatedly and calling out for his family... he is not responsible for the police officer's death. The fact he's been held for 8 months without bail is disgusting.
Virgilio looks so small, sad and defeated in all of the images I've seen of him.
from your resident argyle girlie (gender neutral):
i think a fundamental thing that people miss about his characterization is that he smokes weed because he is, fundamentally, an extremely anxious, panicky, emotional, and sensitive person. he’s easygoing, absolutely, and wholly resourceful, but his first instinct is to have a loud emotional reaction. “got me stressed and she’s not even my girlfriend!” that’s genuine empathy for what his good buddy’s going through.
he’s also a mood setter! his first instinct is to diffuse, charm, and put the other person at ease. he sees that jonathan is anxious about breaking up with nancy, so he knows that smoking a bowl will chill him the fuck out. he senses that will is upset about how mike is acting, so he takes the focus off will by putting mike on the spot a bit. he uses his natural charm and social graces to disarm folks into giving him and his friends what he wants.
"Alright then. Welcome, everyone. And thank you for attending this joyous occasion: two young hearts joining as one. When my son asked me to do this, I was beyond honored. The only thing that could make me happier is walking my daughter down the aisle."
"Oh my WATCHER," Alessia shouted.
Everyone laughed.
"I'm partially kidding. Weddings focus on the bride and groom, but as the parent I..." He began to cry. "I knew I wasn't gonna make it through this, ha ha."
"Awww! Take your time, Ali," Sophia said sweetly.
"Luca, why don't you go ahead with your vows."
"Okay. You mean the world to me. I promise to always love and cherish you, be there when you're down, provide for our family, respect you, and take care of you until my dying day."
"Your turn, Sophia," Dad said.
"I promise to always support you and your endeavors, to build you up and not make you feel small, to be the best version of myself so our family can thrive..."
"I promise to always be your number two fan because your mother pretty much has the number one spot on lock!"
We all laughed.
"You got that right," Mama yelled from the audience.
"Most importantly, I also promise to love, honor, respect, and all those things because I love you like I've never loved anyone before."
"I love you too, Sophia. So much."
I leaned in and tried to kiss her, but Dad put his hand on my shoulder.
"Not yet, son. The rings?"
"Oh! Right."
"Now I pronounce you man and wife. You can kiss her now."
Oooo how do you think all of em would react to MC pulling them in by the belt when they're mutually flirting with each other?
All of Garret's will power would immediately disappear with that bold little gesture. He'd let out a small laugh before grabbing your wrist with a devilish grin before leading you into a private room. He couldn't help but teach you a lesson when it comes to teasing him a little too much. A lesson that lasted several long and hard earned orgasms later.
Marcelo's breath would catch in his throat at the gesture as he looked down at you. Hi's heart rate would skyrocket and his mind would start racing at the contact. Within seconds the majority of his exelerated heart rate would pump blood to his lower body and well... let's say it would be pretty obvious how excited he was by the gesture. He'd honestly just stand there for a moment, processing everything before giving you the most pitiful look, almost as if he was begging you to give him the okay to f*ck you right then and there.
Camilla would laugh boldly before returning the favor and before you knew it she somehow had you pinned against the wall, her soft chest pressed against yours before you both lost yourselves in a passionate make out session.
Rita would raise a brow as a taunting little smile crossed her lips. Her hands would immediately land on your hips as she moved closer. Her hand trailing up your side before cupping your cheek and pulling you into a heated kiss. Only for her to then pull away and tell you that if you wanted her belt so badly, she would happily give it to you, over and over again.
As much as Teagan wanted to see themselves as this calm cool and collected person, they were anything but. If you pulled this on them, they'd immediately start trying to relocate both of you to a bedroom, however if you weren't quick enough for their liking, they wouldn't have an issue taking you where you stood, witnesses be damnned.
