Jasper et al:
Back when we discussed Celeni's interview etc. he had mentioned this type of activity. While we all agreed that much of what he said was not credible, he did mention that this type of stuff goes on rather routinely.
On reading the story posted by Allita, the reference to San Diego caught my eye.
Read the reference below to see why:
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF CALIFORNIA
S029453
San Diego
Super. Ct. No. CRN 20596
The People,
Plaintiff and Respondent,
v.
Rudolph Jose Roybal,
Defendant and Appellant.
This is an automatic appeal (Pen. Code, 1239, subd. (b)) from a judgment of death under the 1978 death penalty law (id., 190 et seq.).
On June 1, 1992, the District Attorney of San Diego County filed an amended information against Rudolph Jose Roybal in the superior court of that county.
Count I charged that, on or about June 10, 1989, defendant murdered Yvonne Weden. (Pen. Code, 187, subd. (a).) It was alleged for death eligibility that he did so under the special circumstances of (1) felony-murder robbery, and (2) felony-murder burglary. (Id., former 190.2, subd. (a)(17)(i), (vii) as added by initiative, Nov. 6, 1978.)
Notes:
Victim was stabbed repeatedly; a door latch with a print was recovered by police but subsequently "lost"; possible that defendant was framed; drug involvement...more.
