According to prosecutors, a California probation office employee, Carla White, allegedly assisted in hiding her son after he allegedly killed a man, per Law & Crime

The incident occurred on November 13th in El Cajon, when 27-year-old Javier Medina was found with gunshot wounds and later pronounced dead at the hospital. Hunter White and Kristian Wolf were arrested for murder and attempted murder, while Carla White was charged with being an accessory after the fact and unauthorized furnishing of records or information. 

Carla White, who works as a senior office assistant with the San Diego County Probation Department, reportedly went to the crime scene and hid her son in the back seat under a sunshade. She also tipped off her son about the police search after seeing a confidential flyer through her job. The motive and relationship between the suspects and the victim have not been disclosed by authorities.

“Any time that a person who is a suspect to a serious crime has a tipoff in advance that they are a suspect, it could give any person a chance to take steps to conceal aspects of the crime or to flee from the area,”

Deputy District Attorney Drew Garrison from San Diego County expressed.

“I think the public generally expects that their public servants will uphold their duties and oaths, and it’s important as an office that the district attorney’s office seeks to hold people accountable for the actions that they’ve taken,”

Garrison told NBC 7.

Hunter White and Wolf are currently in jail at the San Diego County Jail without bail, while Carla White has been released on bail. The defendants are set to appear in court on February 28th for their hearing.
