Jason E Bandel was 19 when he was killed in a gang-related shooting outside a Long Beach home on December 1, 1992. The shooting happened during a wake for Rafael Presidio, a member of the KOS tagging crew. Several people were wounded in the attack; Jason Bandel was among those killed.

The investigation led to the 1995 conviction of Francisco Moreno for Bandel’s murder and the attempted murders of multiple other victims. Years later, a 2010 wiretap in an unrelated investigation produced a recording that implicated Lisa Sedillo as the getaway driver. Sedillo was charged in 2011 and later convicted of second-degree murder; some attempted murder convictions were reversed on appeal.

Many questions remain about who was present that day and how the attack was coordinated. If anyone knew Jason, Rafael Presidio, or saw the wake on December 1, 1992, please share what might help fill in the timeline.
