James Khuri, a wealthy businessman and father of the juvenile suspect, posted a statement to Instagram apologizing to the Munoz family on Wednesday:

"I am aware that the time it has taken me to communicate this has caused further pain for everyone affected. Knowing that this will never do justice for the family of Monique Munoz, I want to apologize to the Munoz family for the tragic loss of their daughter. There are no words I can say to alleviate the pain that you are experiencing. And I realize none of my words or actions will be able to bring back your daughter.

“Still, I want to offer my support in any way you will allow me to. My family and I pray for the Munoz family."

 He claims that his son has suffered brain damage from his injuries. 

"Who gives a kid a Lamborghini?" Monique's father Isaac Cardona told ABC 7 News. "I don't care how much money you have, you don't give a kid a sports car - especially a kid that doesn't even know how to drive right."

The Munoz family have taken to social media with the hashtag #JusticeForMoniqueMunoz, and are planning a protest on the corner of Olympic and Overland Boulevard today.
