Carlos Delcid allegedly killed rookie California police officer Gardiel Solorio and had convictions for other crimes that Los Angeles County prosecutors were not aware of
...
A man accused of killing an off-duty Los Angeles-area police officer this month would have been locked up if authorities had prosecuted him for prior strikes in a February felony domestic violence case, meaning he would have faced prison time.
Carlos Delcid, 20, allegedly shot Monterey Park police officer Gardiel Solorio, 26, multiple times on Aug. 8 while he was sitting in his car outside a gym in a busy shopping center. Delcid reportedly shot Solorio five times at close range as he was backing up and slammed into a parked van while trying to get away.
Delcid returned to a nearby vehicle and took off with a 17-year-old driver, who has been charged in juvenile court for his participation in the crime. Delcid, who has a long criminal history, has two strikes on his record that weren't prosecuted by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office in February.

Solorio joined the department as a recruit in January, but only graduated from the sheriff's training academy last month. He began his field training on July 25.

Time to prosecute Gascone.
That date was MONTHS ago.
The Solorio family have made the plans for it.
This is the kind of crime that tells me we should bring back the punishment known as “draw and quarter”
These criminals should not spend their lives lounging safely getting fed and housed for the rest of their lives after their trials. They should face the kind of justice they mete out. A public draw and quarter would also send a message to the other criminals thinking about doing the same thing and it should be done within 30 days if the crime and evidence is so open and shut there can be no mistake. In this case I would say that applies.
