9/11/24 Update: Fifty seconds to a minute. Nearly 115 bullets. That’s how long it took, and what it took, to kill six people & injure another 12 on 4/3/22, during the worst mass shooting incident in Sacramento’s history. A woman shielded her sister [No name given], Johntaya Alexander, with her body amid gunfire & watched a bloody Alexander inhale her last breath. A 12-year-old [Richard Corral] hot dog seller stood feet away from men exchanging gunfire as screams rang out from people running & falling. A homeless woman, described as a sassy and kind spirit, died where she often slept in between businesses on K Street. These details emerged Wednesday during a preliminary hearing in Sacramento Superior Court as attorneys wrapped up their questioning of Sacramento police Detective Shaun McGovern, the lead investigator on the case. Prosecutors also called upon a gang expert [Police Lt. Zach Eaton], with the Sacramento Police Dept. who testified that a single video uploaded on social media by a suspect challenged an opposing gang & led to the bloody confrontation. Attorneys will be back 10/15/24 to continue testimony.
10/15/24 Update: A Sacramento Judge ruled Tuesday that there was more that eough evidence for the 2 suspects to stand trial in the deadly K Street shooting. "These defendants engage rival gang members in a public gun battle," said Deputy District Attorney Brad Ng. "But you can't show up at an OK corral 7 cry self-defense because you were the slower one of the draw." Both defense attorneys said the men acted in self-defense. The trial is expected to take place in January. Next status hearing on 10/17/24 @ 4pm for both.

1/21/25 Update: Next hearing on 1/24/25 @ 9am. 1/24/25 Update: The trial will begin at the latest in the latter half of 2025 as defense attorneys seek to move the trial outside of Sacramento County. Defense attorneys in high-profile cases often file a motion seeking to change the county where the case is tried if they believe their clients cannot receive a fair trial. Defense attorney Linda Parisi for Martin. Parisi, said she has retained experts who are conducting an “extensive and technical” analysis of the “massive amount of media” capturing the shooting. A survey firm will draw up questions to ask of Sacramento residents to determine if there is prejudice among prospective jurors. Parisi anticipates attorneys will argue the motion requesting a change in venue in June. Sacramento Superior Court Judge Maryanne Gillard also noted she is retiring June 27. The judge who will preside over the trial should hear the arguments about the motion, she said. Attorneys are expected to return Feb. 24 where are another judge could be assigned to this case, Gillard said. Next hearing on 2/24/25 @ 8:45am.
