(Moreno)
(Ramirez)
Attempted murder suspects Miguel Moreno and Ruben Ramirez were arraigned late this afternoon. Their case was the last one called. Both were seated next to each other in court. No other media was in court for the arraignment. There are two alleged victims. Bail for both was set at $750,000 by Judge Steven Steward as requested by Deputy District Attorney Timm. Both are facing potential life sentences, if convicted.
Both spoke articulately and look like any other college student except for the orange jumpsuit. They were quiet and at arraignment, politely and respectfully addressed Judge Steven Steward and listened to their attorneys. Defense request to lower bail was denied.
Mr. RJ Leohner accepted appointment on behalf of the Conflict Counsel's office for Moreno. Mr. Emery Welton accepted appointment on behalf of the Public Defender's office for Ramirez. Time was not waived. OR/bail and supervised release report is scheduled for 8/1; preliminary hearing for 8/8.
Alleged victims are Romarico SanchezMartinez and Nicole Paola Quintero. I checked out social media. I have heard from people who know both Moreno and Ramirez, have worked with them. Let's see what comes out as the case makes it way through the system.
Some discovery was provided by the People today. Both, Mr. Leohner and Mr. Welton requested audio recordings and body camera footage.
