Approximately 6 people gathered for a protest and candlelight vigil at the corner of Soquel and Front St in Santa Cruz, Monday night from 6 - 7p, at the downtown bus stop where resident "Happy" John Dine was shot to death under suspicious circumstances by SCPD 4 years ago that day. Local activists Becky Johnson and Robert Norse were in attendance, among others. Police presence was minimal and not problematic. Protesters maintain the police planted evidence after the killing to justify a self-defense plea. The killers were later exonerated of any wrong-doing.
