High-profile murder trial
ends in life sentence
After an agreement aimed
at avoiding a change in venue,
the murder trial of Reyes
Carrillo-Garcia, accused of
brutally stabbing his former
girlfriend, Jenny Carrigan,
and her boyfriend, Steven
Furtado, got underway
Sept. 28•
The defendant faced
charges of two counts of
murder, each accompanied
by an enhancement for the
alleged use of a knife, and
two special circumstances--
one for allegedly "lying in
wait" and one for an alleged
"multiple murder."
District Attorney Jeff
Cunan painted a picture of
Carrillo-Garcia as a jealous
ex-boyfriend who planned
his attack. Defense attorney
Richard Maxion argued, in-
stead, that Carrillo-Garcia
suffered from acute stress
disorder.
The jury quickly reached
a verdict of guilty on all
counts, and Carrillo-Garcia
was sentenced Nov. 23 to two
consecutive life sentences. He
also received a consecutive
sentence of two years in
prison for two enhancements,
because he used a knife in the
killings. He was ordered to
pay around $50,000 in restitu-
tion to families and the
victims compensation board.
Cunan did not seek the
death penalty at the request
of the Furtado family, who

Garcia spend the rest of his
days in jail.
Logging litigation ends
year on a positive note
The timber wars continued
unabated through 2009, but
the year ended on a positive
note for logging advocates.
In August, a federal judge
denied a motion for a pre-
liminary injunction from an
environmental group to halt
the Moonlight-Wheeler Fire
Recovery and Restoration
Project.
Citing a 2008 Supreme
Court decision, Winter v.
NRDC (Natural Resources
Defense Council), United
States DiStrict Judge Frank
C. Damrell Jr. ruled that
environmental group Earth
Island Institute had not
met the legal standard for a
preliminary injunction.
Then in November, follow-
ing up on a tentative ruling
he made at the beginning of
October, a federal judge
determined, after years of
litigation, which farest man-
agement rules should be in
play on national forests in
the Sierra Nevada.
Not only did he deny
injunction requests from
environmental groups and
the state of California to stop
certain timber projects, but
he also ordered projects in
process or already evaluated
and approved by the Forest
Service to proceed. The deci-
sion affects approximately 75
projects throughout the
mountain range.
The decision, issued Nov. 4,
addresses the long-standing
question of which set of
rules the 2001 Sierra
Nevada Framework or the
revised 2004 Framework
should govern forest manage-
ment in the 11 national
forests in the Sierra Nevada.
District Court Judge Morri-
son England ruled that
although there were some
procedural deficiencies,
which he called "relatively
minor," in the Bush-era 2004
Framework, they did not
