Mistrial Declared in Davis Stabbings Trial; Jury Found Carlos Dominguez Not Guilty of First-Degree Murder
- In Woodland, CA, Judge Sonia Cortes denied the sanity restoration petition for 65-year-old Carlos Reales Dominguez, citing lack of insight, impulse issues, unstable housing, and need for ongoing treatment.
- During court arguments, Deputy Public Defender Joe Gocke cited Dominguez’s substance use and assault at a state hospital, while the prosecution questioned his fitness to reenter society.
- Judge Sonia Cortes acknowledged two years of outpatient progress but found the treatment plan insufficient, with Gocke emphasizing AA meetings and family support from the accused’s daughter.
- Following the judge's denial, Dominguez remains in custody without bail, with a court date set for July 24 to determine next steps in his trial.
- Beyond the court, Davis residents experienced early business closures, UC Davis moved classes online, and expanded rideshare services to enhance safety after the stabbing attacks.
