John Altobelli, who was an Orange Coast College baseball coach, tragically died in the Jan. 26 helicopter crash alongside Kobe Bryant
for his birthday, encouraging others on Facebook to send him a "'Cheers Alto" toast pic if you happen to partake in a beverage today."
"I don’t care if you knew him or not ... hoist it up, people! The world is depressing enough these days. Let’s all bring up a beverage to john. That’s what he’d want. Cheers everyone!" he wrote.. After walking into the stadium underneath a banner that read “The House That Alto Built,” the team — all wearing John’s number, 14 — and fans in the stands took a moment of silence before the first pitch to honor their fallen coach.
"In reality, however, no fewer than eight sheriff’s deputies were at the scene snapping cell-phone photos of the dead children, parents, and coaches," the document asserts. "As the Department would later admit, there was no investigative purpose for deputies to take pictures at the crash site. Rather, the deputies took photos for their own personal purposes."
Only the county coroner’s office and investigators with the National Transportation Safety Board were permitted to photograph the scene, Villanueva
