Nestor Velasquez is a Stockton cop. He was involved in a motor vehicle crash on duty back in 2017. He is now facing both a civil suit and a criminal prosecution because of this.
On June 28, 2017, at 0200, Velasqez and a vehicle driven by Titus Tabotabo, 28, were involved in a crash on S. Airport Way. The officer is facing vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence charges as a result, and has been on paid administrative leave ever since. This is a felony charge.
Officer Velasquez and his partner were driving code 3 to a report of shots fired nearby. The intersection where the collision occurred is a major, light controlled intersection. Both of the roads there are multilane roads traveled by a lot of vehicles. Tabotabo was killed in the crash, both officers were injured.
