Dear Mr. Altman:
I wanted to thank you and the Daily Breeze for the very generous coverage you offered one of our unsolved hit and run fatal collisions. Your article was very detailed and thoughtfully prepared to hit all of the pertinent facts of this case from 1992 where Fred and Ezna Crescitelli were fatally injured while crossing the street in San Pedro.
We appreciate this partnership and assistance. Thank you.

Mr. Altman,
How much is the Lennox station paying you to drag this poor victim and his family's name through the mud? Your story does nothing to present both sides. The people in the comments area seem to know a lot more than you do and should have your job, or you have a biased point of view and are trying to protect the cops from public opinion. The headline should read "Unarmed Man Gunned Down in his Own Driveway By Police while Sitting in his Car not Bothering Anyone."

Dear Daily Breeze,
In regards to the murder commited by the Lennox Deputy, you guys should definetely redefine the way you write your stories by getting the correct info out to the public. Lennox Sherrifs need to be investigated in the way they have been running around our streets harrasing teens and innocents individuals. I am even scared of them when I should feel protected. I feel unsafe simply sitting on my porch bor even sitting in my driveway. Please do a research around the neighborhood and investigate with the community in regards to these untrained Deputies power tripping!!!!!
