His home in Clearlake, California, was marred by violence. Five months prior, his father was charged with spousal battery and, as a result, was barred from owning a firearm.
Ricardo Garcia Perez, 2, died from a gunshot fired by his father on Aug. 12, 2018. Two of his siblings were also killed. His father died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
