Kreis screwed up his sentencing, after being transported back for retrial, Malang resolved his case with a last minute plea

Convicted felon Delano Malang's bit an Arcata Police Department Sgt and was sentenced to prison. I covered that 2022 case. I also covered his retrial.

Former Humboldt Superior Court ousted judge Gregory Kreis' ruling was reversed on appeal with sentencing errors. Malang was transported back from prison to Humboldt County jail. Retrial was scheduled and at the nth hour, after wasting more time, taxpayer money and court resources, Malang resolved his case with a plea. Today, the DA filed a motion to advance sentencing. 

Deputy District Attorney Trent Timm is the prosecutor. Deputy Conflict Counsel RJ Leohner is Malang's attorney.

I have been updating Malang's case and you can catch up with reading via the June 17, 2024 post and other links to previous coverage. 

Details in 8/14 and 8/19 court minutes.
