    Probation Office Employee Allegedly Assisteed Son Accused Of Murder In Evading Police, Hiding Him In Backseat Under Sunshade

    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.

  • Mother Acquitted Of Serious Charges After allegedly Hunting Down Son’s Bullies With A Bat and Running Over Teen Twice, Prosecutors Alleged

    Mother Acquitted Of Serious Charges After allegedly Hunting Down Son’s Bullies With A Bat and Running Over Teen Twice, Prosecutors Alleged

    A Long Island mother, Jennifer Nelson, was recently acquitted of attempted murder and assault charges after taking action against her son’s bullies, reports Law & Crime.

    Nelson’s trial, starting in September, ended with her acquittal on Tuesday. However, she got convicted for fleeing an accident scene, after running over a 15-year-old boy twice, which resulted in serious injuries to the teen. 

    Nelson faced accusations of confronting bullies at William Floyd High School in Mastic Beach with a bat and knife. Suffolk DA Raymond A. Tierney criticized Nelson for taking matters into her own hands.

    “Citizens cannot take the law into their own hands, and should instead work with law enforcement and my office to seek justice in every case,”

    Tierney told the outlet when describing the second-degree attempted murder charge. 

    Nelson suspected that the 15-year-old was involved in bullying her son and a part of the group that stole his sneakers and AirPods. Charges related to the robbery were only filed against two other teenagers.

    According to the DA’s office, Nelson went to the Dunkin’ Donuts parking lot, to allegedly confront them.

    “Once [Nelson arrived] in the parking lot, she threatened a group of students while brandishing a knife and a small bat. During this incident, the victim left the parking lot and walked across the street to the parking lot of Manhattan Bagel,”

    they added. When the 15-year-old walked away, Nelson tailed him with her vehicle

    “at a high rate of speed, and drove directly at the victim who was standing in the parking lot,”

    running over him twice, prosecutors stated.

    Nelson traded in her leased Honda SUV on the same day as the incident, despite the lease not having expired, as an effort to hide the vehicle used in the offense, prosecutors alleged. Nelson told Newsday that she is relieved by the

    “not guilty”

    verdict.

    “I don’t know. I’m just happy with the outcome,”

    she said.

    “This has been a lot, you know, on me, my son, just everybody involved, it’s been a lot,” she added.
