The wife of a County sheriff's deputy who died by suicide has filed a $20 million wrongful-death claim against the county over 'zombie' cops struggling with stress due to excessive overtime. The claim was filed Thursday by attorney Brad Gage on behalf of the family of Deputy Arturo Atilano-Valdez, who shot himself at home on Nov. 7, leaving behind wife Michele Atilano and two daughters. Atilano-Valdez was one of four LASD employees to die by suicide within 24 hours.
