A
man in the San Francisco Bay Area wants Google Maps toremove an aerial image that shows the body of his 14-year-old son, who was shotand killed in 2009.
Jose Barrera told KTVU-TV over the weekend that he became aware of the image of his son Kevin earlier in the week. He said he wants Google Inc. to take down the image out of respect for his son, but it wasn't clear whether he had asked Google directly to take it down.
'When I see this image, that's still like that happened yesterday,' Barrera told the news station Sunday. 'And that brings me back to a lot of memories.'
The image shows what appears to be a body on the ground near a rail line with several other people, presumably investigators, and what looks like a police car nearby. It was visible on Google's website Monday, and the company has said it will remain so for a little more than a week.
