Officials have confirmed that 6 people were killed and a dozen others injured in the mass shooting that happened early Sunday morning in Downtown Sacramento. They also say that multiple shooters were involved, that they have recovered a stolen gun at the scene and have taken one person, Dandrae Martin into custody.
Friends and Family of the the latest victim to be identified – Joshua Hoye – Luchesi – sent tributes out on social media using the nickname Jay-Cee and posting his picture along with RIP messages saying goodbye.

The video also shows Jay Cee brandishing numerous weapons’ including one with a red laser and another that looked like a pump shot gun.
In The video Jay Cee can be heard making threats and flashing what appear to be gang signs associated with the Crips.
At another point in the nearly 7 minute video Jay-Cee indicates that either somebody is looking for him or he is on the run.
The Aguayo News I-Team was then able to locate a post made to social media in December of 2020 by the account belonging to Jay-Cee. it appears as though Jay-Cee is about to turn himself in saying,
“I just signed by deal for 8 years man, this is exhausting. I turn myself in February 9th to all my loved ones, y’all stay dangerous. make sure y’all stll here when I come home.”

The posting says that Joshua Hoye is wanted on charges of criminal threats, and unlawful possession of a controlled substance. The posting hashtag’s the city of Sacramento.

Witnesses indicate that a fight broke out before the Mass Shooting took place.
There have been reports that two victims involved in the mass shooting were associated with the Bloods, one of which was recently released from prison and the other was well known in the streets of Sacramento, indicating that the mass shooting could possibly be gang related.
We then found a video in which Jay-Cee appears to claim his gang affiliation and could be heard saying “I’m a grown A** Crip.”
Police have not yet confirmed the motive for the shooting.
Nationwide there has been 120 mass shootings since the start of the year, averaging out to more than 1 a day – this was the 2nd mass shooting in Sacramento in just 5 weeks.

California has the strictest gun laws in the nation. The state also has the most robust system in the country for taking firearms away from people who are not allowed to have them.
California is also the first state in the country to create a database identifying people who legally purchased guns but were subsequently deemed too dangerous to be armed.
California State Attorney General . Rob Bonta has come under fire as of late and has become known to many in California as an “anticop politician”
In fact one billboard in the state says,
“How can someone who cares more about criminals’ rights than victims’ rights, and is routinely at odds with law enforcement, serve as our state’s top cop? It’s time for a change.”
According to a recent UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll, two thirds of registered voters in California say crime is a major problem, with more than half saying Governor Newsom is doing a poor job on public safety.
However these same voters are approving measures like Proposition 47, a voter-approved ballot measure that Newsom supported which lowers felony drug and theft offenses to misdemeanors and says that theft under $950 cannot be prosecuted.
Voters also approved Proposition 57, a measure that allows prisoners to be released earlier then their assigned sentences.
Republican politicians are demanding an end to the liberal policies that are viewed as soft on crime and blamed for the spiking crime in the state.
Assembly Member Kevin Kiley (R-Rocklin), who is running for Congress in Sacramento called Proposition 47 a “failed policy” that has inflicted “disastrous consequences” on Californians.
According to the L.A. Times, Kiley along with more than 12 other Republican legislators have introduced Assembly Bill 1599 to repeal the law.
“I believe Californians are fed up with this sort of lawlessness,” Kiley said. “They are ready to have a rational public safety policy again.”










Yes, totally gang-related! I’m guessing Del Paso Heights Bloods or Oak Park Bloods Vs 29th Street (Garden Blocc) Crips fought in the club, then continued to fight after the club closed. Someone or some gang pulled guns, fired at rivals striking them and several bystanders…
Great reporting Christina! It’s always a joy to see your reporting Osita.
