MOTHER OF 12-YEAR-OLD PHILADELPHIA POLICE SHOOTING VICTIM TURNS TO SALTZ MONGELUZZI & BENDESKY FOR REPRESENTATION AND JUSTICE
PHILADELPHIA, March 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The mother of 12-year-old Philadelphia police shooting victim Thomas (TJ) Siderio, Jr., has retained Saltz Mongeluzzi & Bendesky P.C., the locally-based national catastrophic personal injury law firm, as she seeks answers and justice in the aftermath of the March 1st incident in which her son was fatally shot in the back while running from plainclothes officers in South Philadelphia.
Robert J. Mongeluzzi, of SMB, said Desirae Marie Frame, Thomas' mother, has asked the firm to serve as her legal representative to "ensure that there is a full and impartial investigation into this horrific incident, that no questions about this tragic fatal shooting are left unanswered, and to press reform so that no other parent has to do the unthinkable—bury their child."
Andrew R. Duffy, a Partner at SMB, said, "The police department's internal investigation was so damning that the Police Commissioner quickly fired the officer who shot TJ for violating the department's use-of-force policy. We will aggressively seek the release of the evidence that caused the Commissioner to quickly conclude that this shooting was not justified"
Benson I. Goldberger of Dion & Goldberger also represents Ms. Frame as co-counsel.
