LOS ANGELES The husband of Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey pointed a gun at Black Lives Matter LA co-founder Melina Abdullah when she and other activists showed up at Laceys house early Monday morning to request a community meeting.

Abdullah and about 30 additional activists gathered near Laceys house around 5:40 a.m. on Monday, the day before the LA district attorney primary. Black Lives Matter activists have been requesting a meeting with Lacey for more than two years to discuss her offices failure to prosecute police officers who kill civilians. More than 500 people have died at the hands of law enforcement during Laceys time as district attorney, but her office has prosecuted only one case .
