On Saturday July 10th dozens of community members, friends and family paddled out in remembrance of Tamario Smith who died in a Santa Cruz County Jail cell May 10th. The cause of death was not disclosed until June 18th causing an uproar of questions as to why it took so long to inform the family. An autopsy later determined his death was caused by over-consumption of water causing his organs to fail, according to information released by the county Sheriff’s Office. Smith was 21 years old.
The event was organized by Indigenous Surf Club, Black Girls Surf and Santa Cruz Barrios Unidos
