It was five years ago this month when Glenn Maurice Johnson was first convicted of murder in the shooting death of Lamar Rufus.
But that conviction was tossed in 2004 when an appeals court found the jury did not receive proper instructions on the law.
The following year, Johnson was again convicted of the same crime — driving the getaway car in support of a gun killing in south Bakersfield.
But once again, his...

There is an interesting story on the LA Times site today that says the LAPD officers union has complained about the police chief's comment that women should be allowed in SWAT.
The story doesn't say exactly what the union's beef is. It does say the LAPD SWAT has some gruelling physical standards, and that those standards are being changed, possibly to make it easier for women to make the team.
It raises an interesting question: Should women be allowed on SWAT? Should the physical standards...
The sump where Zane Newton died Wednesday is one of nearly 340 owned by the city of Bakersfield. And they have to be secured by a 6-foot-tall fence, officials said.
But despite Zane's accident, the city doesn't plan to go inspect all 340 for holes in fences or broken chain locks, according to city water resources manager Florn Core.
Is that wise, especially in light of lawsuits families have filed against the city when their child has died on city property like the Park at Riverwalk or the...
