Elizabeth Munoz says seven years after her son's murder in National City, her pain is still very real.
“As parents of a murdered child, we ask, we plead, we demand that we have peace on our streets that we end the violence. The gun violence that goes on in our neighborhoods,” says Elizabeth Munoz.
City leaders joined community members on Wednesday to call for a season of peace in National City, asking for a cease-fire to gang-related violence."Our son's life was taken for no reason just because... People are in gangs and they decide that they could take a life," she added.
