Life in prison without parole ordered in 'suitcase' murder case
A San Diego judge, saying she was troubled by the defendant’s lack of remorse, ordered Joshua Matthew Palmer to prison Friday for life without the possibility of parole for raping and strangling a co-worker and stuffing her body into a suitcase two years ago.

“You still want to blame everybody else except yourself for the death of this young woman,” Superior Court Judge Joan Weber told Palmer.

Haynes’ mother and sister read emotional statements in court, noting she will never get to learn to drive a car, buy a house or have children.

“Two years later, and it still doesn’t feel real,” Jeannette Haynes said amid sobs. “You were forever my little sister and I failed to protect you.”

Their mother, Shirley Haynes, told Palmer, “I hope you are listening to the hurt, the grief, the anguish you have caused me.”
