According to a news release<\/a>\u00a0by the San Bernardino County Sheriff\u2019s Department, police learned of the homicide at 4:03 p.m. on July 11, 2020. The suspect was described as an \u201cunknown male.\u201d<\/p>\nAuthorities have released few details in the case. \u201cOn Saturday, July 11, 2020 at 4:03 p.m. Twin Peaks deputies responded to a report of a shooting at 22400 Glenwood Drive. Upon arrival deputies found the victim, later identified as Marc Angelucci, unresponsive and suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. Medical aid also responded and Angelucci was pronounced deceased at the scene,\u201d their press release says.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe investigation is ongoing. The motive for the shooting is unknown at this time. Detectives are asking anyone that witnessed the shooting or has information to contact Detective Simon Demuri, Specialized Investigations Division \u2013 Homicide Detail at (909)387-3589. Callers can remain anonymous.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n2. Angelucci Was Described as Having a \u2018Magnetic\u2019 Personality by the National Coalition of Men, for Which He Served as Vice President<\/h2>\n

Angelucci was the vice president and board member of the National Coalition for Men.<\/p>\n
\u201cMarc Etienne Angelucci, Vice-President and Board Member of the National Coalition for Men (NCFM) and longtime President and Founder of the Los Angeles Chapter of NCFM, was tragically murdered early in the morning of July 11, 2020, in front of his home in Crestline, California,\u201d\u00a0a statement\u00a0<\/a>released by the Coalition said.<\/p>\n\u201cMarc Angelucci was truly beloved, with a personality that had a magnetism that many of his friends and colleagues found to be truly magical. Marc was an unbelievably generous man, living on a shoestring despite some personal health challenges so he could donate many millions of dollars of his time to mostly voluntary legal work on behalf of men\u2019s rights and the genuine gender equality that is so badly needed in this country and this world.\u201d<\/p>\n
The website statement says that \u201cMarc joined NCFM as a law student in 1997 after seeing his friend physically abused for years by his wife and then denied domestic violence services because he is male. In 2001 he formed the L.A. chapter of NCFM and served as its president until 2008, during which time NCFM-LA became an active chapter that organized rallies, filed lawsuits and received significant media attention.\u201d<\/p>\n
The statement concluded: \u201cMarc was a man full of joy and love, a true pleasure to know for all of us fortunate enough to be able to call him our colleague and\/or friend. If Marc Etienne Angelucci didn\u2019t exist, we would need to invent him, though honestly the man so far exceeded any dreams any of us could possibly have for an unbelievable combination of shining personal qualities and amazing professional achievements. While wildly successful on the legal front, he was a fabulously down-to-earth, loving man when not demolishing opponents in courtrooms to promote justice. Rest In peace, our dear fallen soldier. No finer man ever walked the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Southern Poverty Law Center has been harshly critical of elements of the men\u2019s rights movement.<\/p>\n
\n3. Angelucci, Who Appeared in a Documentary Called \u2018The Red Pill,\u2019 Was Co-Counsel in Cases Involving a Congressional Candidate<\/h2>\n

Angelucci appeared in\u00a0The Red Pill<\/em><\/a>, a movie about the men\u2019s rights movement. The documentary is controversial.\u00a0A scathing review<\/a>\u00a0in Daily Review wrote, \u201cThe director\u2019s central hypothesis is that, in the present day and age, women have it better than men\u2026The Red Pill should not be laughed away or derided as benign flapdoodle. It is a dangerous film, in that it presents men going through hard times a convenient catch-all narrative; a panacea for their woes.\u201d<\/p>\nCassie Jaye, the filmmaker behind\u00a0The Red Pill<\/em>, wrote a tribute to Angelucci on her website. It says in part:<\/p>\nHe never initially planned on being a \u2018men\u2019s rights attorney\u2019 (as I labeled him in my film), but his big heart wouldn\u2019t let him turn his back on good, innocent people needing legal counsel. The more he worked on these cases, the more he learned how unjust the system was. In his 20 years of practicing law, he became one of the most sought after and effective attorneys to fight on behalf of men (and women) in cases where gender discrimination was apparent, such as cases involving: child custody, divorce, paternity laws, domestic violence services, criminal sentencing, military conscription, public benefits, false accusations and education.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Ronda Kennedy, an attorney running for U.S. Congress, wrote on Twitter that she had spoken with detectives.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy co-counsel on two cases Marc Angelucci, was murdered last night. Just did an interview with detectives. If you have any information please contact the San Bernardino detectives,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n
Her Twitter page says, \u201cI am a mother of 6 (including 7 y\/o triplets) an attorney & Dean at @Ahulawschool I\u2019m running 4 Congress in #CA26.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMarc touched the lives of everyone who knew him. He made a difference not only in fighting for the underdog in the courts but for all who knew him,\u201d she wrote in a statement, adding, \u201cEven though his life was tragically cut short, the causes that he battled for in the courts will endure and be his lasting tribute. Marc demonstrated the power of the law and a strict interpretation of the Constitution can make a difference. He will be missed every day.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n4. Angelucci Won Cases Involving Male-Only Draft Registration & Excluding Male Victims From Domestic Violence Funding<\/h2>\n

Kennedy said in a news release that Angelucci was the vice president and board member of the National Coalition for Men. She said she had \u201cjust been in court with him\u201d and that he was alive when police arrived but later died of his wounds.<\/p>\n
She praised the work \u201che had done legally in winning many groundbreaking cases such as an equal protection case against the Selective Service Administration overturning male-only draft registration. He previously won a case in California, Woods V. Horton, that held it is unconstitutional to exclude male victims of domestic violence from state funding for victim services.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy heart is breaking over the tragic and senseless death of my friend and co-counsel on several cases \u2013 Marc Angelucci,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n
The National Coalition for Men outlines similar accomplishments, writing:<\/p>\n
Marc compiled a truly legendary set of legal achievements, including recently winning an equal protection case against the Selective Service Administration overturning male-only draft registration. In 2008 Marc won a landmark appellate case against the State of California (Woods v. Horton) which held it is unconstitutional to exclude male victims of domestic violence from state funding for victim services. Marc also helped draft and enact legislation to stop paternity fraud, served on the California DCSS Paternity Committee, served on the Training Committee of the L.A. County Domestic Violence Council, and testified before the California Senate and Assembly Judiciary Committees. In a remarkable tribute to Marc\u2019s skill at building bridges and remedying discrimination, the Southern Poverty Law Center, which some might think would be opposed to much of his work, invited him to be an Honoree on their Wall of Tolerance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
