So far, 2023 has brought unprecedented violence to the San Gabriel Valley and with it, deep and lingering effects.
The unprecedented, back-to-back spate of gun violence in the early weeks of a new year has given the community mourning whiplash. Their impact runs deep in the quiet suburbs of Monterey Park and Hacienda Heights and in the region’s shaken Catholic community.
Mourners for the Monterey Park mass shooting victims join a vigil at the Star Ballroom Dance Studio on Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2023. “I thought it was a bad joke,” said local resident Patricia Maravilla, referring to the moment she heard the news about O’Connell’s death. “You never expect somebody that respected, that admired, for something like this to happen,” she said. “For somebody to be shot, in this neighborhood, you just don’t expect it.”
“The overall feeling that the region is a great and safe place to live in, to raise a family to in, to work in has been punctuated by these recent instances of gun violence, and I think it just shows that that no community is immune from gun violence,” said Lo.
