Axe murder inquiry still possible

29 February 2012 Last updated at 12:32 ET Daniel Morgan was murdered in 1987 but no-one has ever been found guilty A judicial review has not been ruled out into the murder of a private investigator from Monmouthshire 25 years ago, says the UK government. MP Tom Watson wants Daniel Morgan's 1987 death in south London to be examined by the Leveson inquiry into media standards. The case against four men charged with murder collapsed in March 2010. Policing Minister Nick Herbert said such an inquiry had limitations, but in a Commons debate did not rule it out. He said Home Secretary Theresa May was still considering whether to order one, but other investigations might be more appropriate. Mr Herbert suggested a QC could oversee an inquiry by a police force from outside London. The Morgan family have said they have no trust in the Metropolitan Police and do not want the police to investigate themselves. The family have again called for a judicial inquiry into police handl

Defense rests in ex-detective's murder trial

Image
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The defense rested Tuesday in the love-triangle murder trial of former Los Angeles police detective Stephanie Lazarus , a case dating back 26 years. Lazarus' lawyer, Mark Overland , ended his two-day presentation focusing on three letters that have defined the case — DNA. Overland suggested in questioning a witness that critical genetic evidence linking Lazarus to the murder of her romantic rival was mishandled in an era before the value of DNA was known. Prosecutors have pinned their case on a sample of saliva taken from a bite mark on the arm of victim Sherri Rasmussen in 1986. The evidence sat dormant until DNA analysis was done nearly 30 years later, first showing a woman was involved then linking it to Lazarus. Overland, who conducted aggressive cross-examination of prosecution experts during the three-week trial, is expected to tell jurors in final arguments that the DNA sample was contaminated during the many years it was rolling around in a box in

Joanna Ramos , 10, died after getting into a fight with another schoolgirl. The death of a 10-year-old Southern California schoolgirl after a fight with another student has been ruled a homicide, the coroner said today. Investigators said Joanna Ramos, a fifth-grader at Willard Elementary School in Long Beach , died from blunt-force trauma to the head. "They did surgery on her brain because she had a blood clot, and after surgery the doctor said she was still alive, and then a few minutes later he comes back and tells us that her heart stopped and they couldn't bring her back," Joanna's sister, Vanessa Urbina , told the Associated Press. Joanna died at 9 p.m. Friday. Earlier that afternoon, she and another fifth-grade girl had planned to fight in an alley near the school. "They were fighting over a boy, just for a boy," classmate Stephanie Soltero told ABC News affiliate KABC, crying. "It's just stupid." Police said there were seven

Veteran homicide prosecutor moves to public corruption unit

Image
There were tears in Deborah Zimet's eyes after she delivered her final closing argument as a state homicide prosecutor. A widely respected professional, she waited until the jury left the courtroom before letting herself display any emotion. A 19-year veteran of the homicide unit of the Broward State Attorney's Office, Zimet will now be shifting her prosecutorial attention to police officers and politicians accused of corruption. Even her courtroom opponents saluted her. "She will definitely be missed in the Homicide Unit, but not by me," said defense lawyer Eric Schwartzreich, who went up against Zimet in the 2003 trial of Mark Hawkins. Schwartzreich's client was convicted of killing a Miami woman with a lethal silicone injection and served five years before the conviction was overturned on appeal — an assistant medical examiner's expertise was successfully challenged.

Driver pleads guilty to manslaughter in deadly shooting

Image
The man behind the wheel of a fatal drive-by shooting nearly two years ago in Glendale has pleaded guilty to manslaughter. Jose Allan Gallegos-Mendoza, 26, pleaded Monday in 3rd District Court to the reduced second-degree felony charge in the death of José "Juan" Rubio-Navarro. Rubio-Navarro, 32, was shot June 24, 2010, as he sat on the curb in front of his home, eating breakfast and waiting for a ride to work. Police later arrested Gallegos-Mendoza, José Adrián Rodríguez-Ramírez and the victim's common-law wife, Maria Marta Campusano, in the shooting. Throughout the legal proceedings, Gallegos-Mendoza and Rodríguez-Ramírez pointed to the other as the triggerman. Rodríguez-Ramírez, who is serving 15 years to life in prison for killing Rubio-Navarro, told police he feared for his safety because Campusano's husband had learned of his affair with Campusano. He also said he learned from Campusano that Rubio-Navarro was a heavy drinker and abusive toward her. Campu

Buy This Photo Sary Svay was in Department 31 for a preliminary hearing Sept. 12, 2011, at the county courthouse in downtown Stockton charged with killing two unarmed security guards at an apartment complex. CLIFFORD OTO/The Record February 27, 2012 12:00 AM STOCKTON - Sary Svay, suspected of gunning down two unarmed security guards in June 2009, now sits in a prison cell outside Delano. The 26-year-old Stockton man - originally eligible for the death penalty in a double homicide - is instead serving a 15-year sentence on reduced charges in an unrelated shooting. Murder charges were dropped as part of a plea deal reached last month. Svay, an alleged member of a southeast Asian gang, has been sent to North Kern State Prison. As part of the plea agreement, he admitted to firing at a woman in her car. Svay was arrested after authorities said he later shot two AdForce security guards in the parking lot of Park Village apartments in central Stockton. Claude Eugene McCormic
