FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- On the corner of Blackstone and Nees, families lined the sidewalk, demanding changes to Proposition 57 on Saturday.

"All of us have our own story and we're just trying to bring awareness to the fact that it's just light sentencing for horrific crimes," said one victim's mother.

Prop 57 was approved by California voters in 2016. It gave judges the power to decide if a minor should be tried as an adult instead of prosecutors.

Anthony Calderon was shot and killed last thanksgiving in Central Fresno. The four suspects arrested by police were a 16-year-old, two 19-year-olds, and a 20-year-old.

"The way that he was killed was a random act of violence. They did not know him. They shot at him over 56 times, he was shot three times," said Calderon's mother.
