Family members of a man shot by South Jordan police used the City Council’s public‑comment period on Tuesday to demand answers and faster disclosure of investigation materials.

“Something happened this weekend that was very terrible news. We have another dead Utahn from this city shot to death by Jeff Carr's team,” Brian Gutierrez told the council, identifying himself and saying his brother, Marcelo, was the person who died. “This is the second Utahn shot to death in six months by your team.”

Several relatives followed with emotional remarks. Remi Lamisio described visiting the place where her brother was shot and said she prayed on a rock at the scene. “I just prayed to God for strength to forgive. But one thing that troubles me is that I need to know what happened, and that's all my family asks for,” she said. Paola Gutierrez Polson said the family has been told repeatedly to “just wait,” and contrasted local practice with Salt Lake City, where she said body‑worn camera footage was released within 10 days in a past case.

Mayor Dawn Ramsey acknowledged the family’s pain and asked City Attorney Ryan Lewis for an update. Lewis said the city is awaiting action by the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office and explained the legal review timeline. “They have 180 days. They can go beyond 120 or 180 days under the state code under certain circumstances which they have to name,” Lewis said, adding that the city does not control that timeline and that investigators and the DA retain the reports.

Lewis also told the council the police chief has been in contact with the DA’s office this week and that the Gutierrez family has made contact with investigators. The city attorney said the council has no more information than what is in news reports and that the city will follow any instructions from the DA.

During public comment Brian Gutierrez asked why the council removed contact information for council members from the city website; he also said the family would accept only communication through their attorney. The city later confirmed the family’s counsel has asked that communications go through him.

No formal council action was taken at the meeting on the shooting. The council did not release investigation documents; Lewis reiterated that release decisions rest with the investigating team and the district attorney.
