Conviction of Army & Navy headmaster for child abuse is overturned – updated 12-6-21
Jeffrey S Barton unexpectedly appeared on the calendar for tomorrow morning, Monday, March 8, in San Diego's North County Superior Courthouse in Vista. The calendar lists him appearing in "department 12" from 9 am to 9:15 a.m. He is shown as remaining in California State prison Avenal, so it should be an appearance by video monitor. Anyone can listen in to this hearing, by connecting through YouTube (audio only, there will be no visual). These remote court appearances are NOT SAVED on the YouTube platform, they are only broadcast once, live. The link to hear this court appearance is below, scroll down the page to find North County, department 12 and click on that line. The audio is turned off and on in the courtroom, some patience required.

Ex-Marine accused of killing Oceanside neighbor in broad daylight
Prosecutor Keith Watanabe was in the downtown courthouse several days this week, for hearings regarding Eduardo Arriola's mental competency. Today prosecutor Watanabe released this statement: "After months of legal battles over Mr. Arriola’s competence to stand trial, we are thankful that criminal proceedings have been reinstated. The victim’s family has been awaiting justice for far too long. We look forward to finally going to trial." Defendant Eduardo Arriola, who is now 28 and has been in custody since July 2018, is now set for a hearing in San Diego's North County Superior Courthouse on Monday, March 8, 2021.

Murder charged on Nardo Street in Solana Beach
Emily Cox, public affairs officer for the Superior Courts of San Diego County, stated that Jade Janks did not appear in court today because “her attorney was authorized to appear on her behalf for this hearing. I believe this hearing was mostly for the purpose of date-setting.” The next court hearing for murder defendant Jade Janks is now set for April 8, to confirm or delay a date of May 5 for a preliminary hearing. It is unclear if defendant Jade Janks, who is currently at liberty on $500,000 bail, is expected to make a personal appearance at the next court date for her murder case.

Conviction of Army & Navy headmaster for child abuse is overturned – updated 12-6-21
Convicted child abuser Jeffrey Barton did not appear for his scheduled hearing today, Wednesday March 3, 2021. In fact, he was never moved into local custody in San Diego County, and he remains in custody at California State Prison Avenal. Prosecutor Patricia Lavermicocca has filed “an order to produce” Barton for a hearing on March 23 at 9 a.m. in Department 5 of the North County Superior Courthouse in Vista. (there is courthouse gossip that Barton's very-experienced and aggressive defense counsel Sherry Stone is trying to negotiate a plea deal so the prisoner can be released for "time served.")

Murder charged on Nardo Street in Solana Beach
It appears that Jade Janks is now at liberty, she is no longer held in local custody in San Diego County. Janks may have been able to post the bail amount approved at a previous hearing. Her next court date had been set for this Wednesday, March 3, 2021, in San Diego's North County courthouse in Vista.

Vista child grabber gets four years prison

Conviction of Army & Navy headmaster for child abuse is overturned – updated 12-6-21
Jeffrey Barton is scheduled to be in the Vista courthouse (most likely by video monitor) in Department 1, in one week, on March 3, 2021, Wednesday. His assigned public defender is Sherry Stone, a very experienced and aggressive defender. Barton, who is now 63 and still in California State Prison Avenal, was previously scheduled for possible parole in October 2038. Thank you for your welcoming words, Visduh!

Weldon McDavid shot Greg Mulvihill on secluded dirt path in Carlsbad
At a remote-hearing-by-video this morning, the re-sentencing of Weldon McDavid was delayed again. His next date to be sentenced is now April 23, 2021. McDavid appeared calm and not particularly in a hurry to get re-sentenced, he is already in a California prison. At the next hearing, his attorney might try to argue that McDavid should be excused from paying restitution for his court fees.

Conviction of Army & Navy headmaster for child abuse is overturned – updated 12-6-21
Jeffrey S Barton unexpectedly appeared on the calendar for tomorrow morning, Monday, March 8, in San Diego's North County Superior Courthouse in Vista. The calendar lists him appearing in "department 12" from 9 am to 9:15 a.m. He is shown as remaining in California State prison Avenal, so it should be an appearance by video monitor. Anyone can listen in to this hearing, by connecting through YouTube (audio only, there will be no visual). These remote court appearances are NOT SAVED on the YouTube platform, they are only broadcast once, live. The link to hear this court appearance is below, scroll down the page to find North County, department 12 and click on that line. The audio is turned off and on in the courtroom, some patience required. http://www.sdcourt.ca.gov/portal/page?_pageid=55,…— March 7, 2021 5:21 a.m.
Ex-Marine accused of killing Oceanside neighbor in broad daylight
Prosecutor Keith Watanabe was in the downtown courthouse several days this week, for hearings regarding Eduardo Arriola's mental competency. Today prosecutor Watanabe released this statement: "After months of legal battles over Mr. Arriola’s competence to stand trial, we are thankful that criminal proceedings have been reinstated. The victim’s family has been awaiting justice for far too long. We look forward to finally going to trial." Defendant Eduardo Arriola, who is now 28 and has been in custody since July 2018, is now set for a hearing in San Diego's North County Superior Courthouse on Monday, March 8, 2021. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2021/m…— March 5, 2021 11:27 a.m.
Murder charged on Nardo Street in Solana Beach
Emily Cox, public affairs officer for the Superior Courts of San Diego County, stated that Jade Janks did not appear in court today because “her attorney was authorized to appear on her behalf for this hearing. I believe this hearing was mostly for the purpose of date-setting.” The next court hearing for murder defendant Jade Janks is now set for April 8, to confirm or delay a date of May 5 for a preliminary hearing. It is unclear if defendant Jade Janks, who is currently at liberty on $500,000 bail, is expected to make a personal appearance at the next court date for her murder case. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2021/m…— March 3, 2021 3:36 p.m.
Conviction of Army & Navy headmaster for child abuse is overturned – updated 12-6-21
Convicted child abuser Jeffrey Barton did not appear for his scheduled hearing today, Wednesday March 3, 2021. In fact, he was never moved into local custody in San Diego County, and he remains in custody at California State Prison Avenal. Prosecutor Patricia Lavermicocca has filed “an order to produce” Barton for a hearing on March 23 at 9 a.m. in Department 5 of the North County Superior Courthouse in Vista. (there is courthouse gossip that Barton's very-experienced and aggressive defense counsel Sherry Stone is trying to negotiate a plea deal so the prisoner can be released for "time served.") http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2021/m…— March 3, 2021 1:52 p.m.
Murder charged on Nardo Street in Solana Beach
It appears that Jade Janks is now at liberty, she is no longer held in local custody in San Diego County. Janks may have been able to post the bail amount approved at a previous hearing. Her next court date had been set for this Wednesday, March 3, 2021, in San Diego's North County courthouse in Vista. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2021/m…— March 1, 2021 1:25 p.m.

Jeffrey Barton is scheduled to be in the Vista courthouse (most likely by video monitor) in Department 1, in one week, on March 3, 2021, Wednesday. His assigned public defender is Sherry Stone, a very experienced and aggressive defender. Barton, who is now 63 and still in California State Prison Avenal, was previously scheduled for possible parole in October 2038. Thank you for your welcoming words, Visduh!— February 24, 2021 4:24 a.m.
Weldon McDavid shot Greg Mulvihill on secluded dirt path in Carlsbad
At a remote-hearing-by-video this morning, the re-sentencing of Weldon McDavid was delayed again. His next date to be sentenced is now April 23, 2021. McDavid appeared calm and not particularly in a hurry to get re-sentenced, he is already in a California prison. At the next hearing, his attorney might try to argue that McDavid should be excused from paying restitution for his court fees. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2021/f…— February 22, 2021 12:42 p.m.
