Description
The Zahau family dropped the lawsuit against former San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore. They initially sued Gore trying to get documents related to the case that they believed he was hiding.
Zahau family attorney Keith Greer told CBS 8 they dropped the lawsuit against Gore because there was nothing else to gain from him in the case.
"We were looking for what the sheriff's instructions were for the group of three officers that were reviewing evidence for a second time. We wanted to see in writing what he told them to do, and we found out by his declaration he never put his instructions in writing," said Greer.
Greer also said according to the pleadings, Gore has admitted to not giving the whole case file to the Zahau family.
The family is now turning their attention to the medical examiner, trying to get the cause of death on the death certificate changed from suicide to undetermined or homicide.
