Family of woman found in ditch sues San Diego Sheriff’s Office

The three children of the woman found earlier this year in a Lemon Grove ditch have sued the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office for allegedly ignoring pleas for help.

Irma Perez Espinoza, 43, died in August. The lawsuit accuses the department of lying and negligence in Espinoza’s “wrongful death.” It also alleges that a longstanding failure to properly supervise deputies contributed to Espinoza’s suffering, among other accusations.
