Exactly a week ago, a five year old and a 13 month old toddler witnessed their parents executed in a quiet residential neighborhood of San Francisco.

Jose Antonio Delacruz and Flor Guzman-Vasquez were executed while sitting in the front seat of their truck with their toddler, Sahian Michelle. Their five year old, Oscar Limon had to crawl past their bodies and leave his crying baby sister to get help. He was covered in their blood as he knocked on doors in the Mission Terrace neighborhood.

Since Oscar had a haircut and was in his best Sunday clothes and Sahian’s hair was in ribbons, it appears that the family was headed to church.

Yet, Mayor Newsom hasn’t said one word about this double murder that has destroyed this small family. His staff nor the San Francisco Police Department have started a fund to help Oscar and Sahian to get the mental help that they need now and when they get older to deal with their loss and the memory. His rich friends on the society page are not starting a trust fund to ensure that Oscar and Sahian will at least get a post-secondary education when they grow up.

And more importantly, nothing has been said about a reward or any effort to find the murderer of Oscar’s and Sahian’s parents.

We see the Mayor at the MLK breakfast talking about going to schools each Friday. We see the Mayor talking about getting approval for his Google/Earthlink wireless deal which experts are pointing out, is not much of a deal. He’s there to cut the ribbon of a new transit line that went overbudget and helped to bankrupt businesses along Third Street in the Bayview.

But we haven’t seen Gavin Newsom state anything about finding the person who murdered Oscar’s and Sahian’s parents in front of them.

Nor have we heard anything from Gavin Newsom about finding the murderers of Tony Hunt and Yusef Campbell who were killed two blocks from John Muir Elementary School last Saturday night. Nor is Gavin Newsom on record about trying to find the identity of the woman whose charred body was found Friday evening on a boat ramp near Candlestick Point.

Gavin Newsom was eager to talk about the reduction of murders in 2005 from 85 to 96. But he did not note that 96 murders in one year was a decade high. And for obvious reasons, he did not touch upon the fact that the murder rate has actually gone up by 23% during his administration.

Meanwhile, Oscar and Sahian’s lives have been shattered. Their last memory of their parents is now sheared into their hearts. Luckily, their mother’s sister had the resources to come to San Francisco from Philadelphia on Sunday to bring them into her home. Undoubtedly, the first thing their aunt did was to hold and comfort her sister’s babies as they begun their new lives together.

Meanwhile, Gavin Newsom hasn’t bothered to set up a fund for the children, to speak out against their parents’ murders, nor offer a reward for tips to find their murderer. He hasn’t even express his grief on the loss that these small children have to bear.

We (and Oscar and Sahian) deserve more in a mayor.
