The "bonus" video seemed most revealing of CM's demeanor than all other court appearances. I sensed anxiety and emotional discomfort, likely enhanced because he was standing with "all eyes on him" for a pretty good length of time, as opposed to comfortably seated and partially hidden from view...
He worked as a stock person, maybe those schedules are more regular than check out clerks. His work records were investigated, so I'm sure his work hours were scrutinized. The results just weren't disclosed, like so many other objects detailed in the warrants. Some of those warrants were...
I'm still stuck on the gang connection, particularly an image at this link.

I opened a new window so I could do a side-by-side comparison with current pix on news sites and the much younger CM @ wedding, the features are identical...
Thank you so much. I browsed the previous thread and found it, watched the video twice and not a word about who he lived with. The videos are often edited and important snippets are gone. Perhaps at the family's request?
I did find mention of the sister on a CBS 8 video, as well as mother and...
tvscum is correct. The man who approached Ilona and was seen on surveillance video is "unidentified", but described as wearing a black sweater shirt, tan pants and white tennis shoes. Warrant #46063, page 6, line 25 and continues to page 7.
It's a positive sign they collected all 3 items...
I guess I missed the relevance of CM's brother-in-law's vehicle - was it in the news?
Was it confirmed that CM lived with his sister and brother-in-law? A man, and woman named Mecardo-Axxxxxx, are associated with that address and are in their 50's. CM is 29. Not saying it's impossible to have a...
I can't find it now, but immediately following the shootings - XMas eve day - he was described as "dark complected, possibly African American."
Original suspect description . . .
During a news conference Tuesday morning, Lt. Mike Hastings said police are in the process of obtaining...
Attorney Grethen von Helms' thoughts on a death penalty ruling . . .
"The prosecution does not have a motive -- something juries prefer when ruling on a proper sentence.
"It helps to explain why this may have happened, but it is not necessary to obtain a conviction,”
Attorney Mark...
Hoping my attachment of Gianni's car was successful.
EDIT: Yeah, it worked!
I think the 2 witnesses misidentified a "waiting" Honda Civic (previously described as dark gray, 2008-2011), and it was Gianni's dark green Toyoto Camry. The fact they both drive Honda Civics is here for a reason . . ...
CM's original attorney, Michael Berg, was replaced by public defender Gary Gibson. In an attempt to understand what prompted this, I did a little research on what defense attorneys want to know . . .
the truth, but not necessarily the whole truth. Don't lie, but think very hard about what to...
Right you are. I'm not a fan, but Bonnie Dumanis has years of expertise in these matters. It's usual to consult with victims' families before agreeing to the death penalty or plea deals. She did an outstanding job in the John Gardner case, that led to the discovery of Amber Dubois' remains. It...
The guns and apparent lack of socialization made me think "gang". At 29 years old and after 8 years on the job, if I remember correctly as a stock person, he doesn't seem to have much career incentive. His brothers, if I've identified them correctly, are college educated and have professional...
I'd think he would try to impress the judge who decides if enough evidence is presented, the case will go to trial. At an early hearing, his hair was trimmed and combed. Since then, every appearance is worse than the last. Don't know if he's on meds that make him look all puffy and devoid of...
Really? After he was first arrested, I remember reading or watching a video that said he lived with a sister and brother-in-law. When I found they were both in their 50's, and her maiden name was Mercado, I presumed it was his father's sister. No one else in the Mira Mesa household, that I know...
I didn't know CM had a sister. I believe he has a 31 year old female cousin, whose parents he resided with at the Mira Mesa address. Maybe it was her and CM's aunt. There's also a sister-in-law in Northern Cali. Perhaps their identities were unknown to news reporters, usually spectators related...
It helps LE solve gang related crimes! They engage in keyboard commando, and if you can decipher the code, they implicate themselves. A successful criminal has tight lips, these fools can't keep their mouths shut. I got the heebie jeebies looking them up, hopefully they don't have a Geek Squad...
Thanks. I hadn't seen this one. I only browsed this site before CM was named a suspect. Maybe I should go back and review posts that have renewed relevance.
He seems much thinner. I suppose protective custody in the psychiatric ward makes meal time a celebration. I also found a resemblance...
