Cameron Sterling was unfortunately thrust into the public eye when his dad, Alton Sterling , was fatally shot by police in front of a Baton Rouge gas station. Though his response was reasonably emotional during a press conference after Alton's death, Cameron told the world that his dad's life mattered. "I really want everyone to know, everyone nationwide, everyone in this world, to know that Alton Sterling was a good man," Cameron said . "No matter what anyone else has to say about him, truly in my heart, I know he was a good dad."
