A court of appeals overturned the conviction. Great going.

Doesn't this eerily remind you of Leonard Lake & Charles Ng?

October 26, 1998 - Charles Ng - The trial of Charles Ng, California's most notorious non-convicted killer, began
with the prosecution showing a videotape of Mr. Ng -- who was sporting a stun belt during his court appearance --
cutting away the shirt and bra of a bound woman identified as Brenda O'Connor. Off camera, Leonard
Lake, Ng's friend and accomplice, tells her she has a choice: cooperate by cleaning, cooking and having sex with
the two, or be raped and shot immediately. "You'd better believe us, Brenda, or you'll be dead," Lake tells
her. "I believe you," she replies. Not surprisingly, she is one of Ng's twelve alleged victims.

Lake...his plans to build a cell for a sex slave... committed suicide in 1985 by taking cyanide while in police custody...

Though Ng, 37, is accused of killing seven men, three women and two babies in their remote cabin in the Sierra Nevada
foothills, police say as many as 25 people may have been sadistically killed by the lethal duo. Many victims
are still unidentified because the killers dismembered the bodies and scattered the bones.

(From the Internet Crime Archives)

If IIRC, Ng fled to Canada, who would not return him unless the death penalty was taken off the table. Hey, if it were
up to me, I would have let Canada's shrinking pool of taxpayers pick up the tab, them being so humane and all.

I didn't make it to the courthouse this morning. Had something else more important. I will post what the paper has to say sometime tomorrow. As you might know, I do not have many friends at the courthouse; but I am very well known.
