Kansas City family challenges charges in deadly gas station shooting that killed 2 brothers

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - Newly released surveillance video shows the final moments of the lives of two Kansas City men.

Brothers, Taylor and Byron Garrett died after they were shot at a gas station near Truman Road and Brooklyn Avenue on July 20.

Nearly a month later, their family is speaking out – arguing prosecutors aren’t doing enough to hold the accused gunman accountable.

Jackson County Prosecutor Melesa Johnson said charges comply with Missouri law, and added that the office understands the family’s disappointment. (Full statement at the bottom of the article.)

The man charged in the case, Emmanuel Hernandez, faces voluntary manslaughter – but only for one of the brothers’ deaths.
