Three years later and after endless continuances, alleged molestor Sebastion Hockett is going to enter a plea sometime today

 

Three years later and after endless continuances, alleged molestor Sebastion Hockett is going to enter a plea sometime today. First, it was at 1:30, then 10:15, now it may be sent to another department. First change was  due to requests by Deputy DA Carolyn Schaffer and Public Defender Luke Brownfield, then due to the availability of Jane Doe 2's mother which is only until 10 a.m. and she appeared by Zoom and other individuals present with DA Victim Witness Advocate. 

At attorneys' request, Humboldt Superior Court Judge Steven Steward sent the case to Judge Kaleb Cockrum so the plea could be taken while Jane Doe 2's mother was present.

Update: Hockett pleaded guilty to PC 288.7(b) Count 1 oral copulation with a minor 10 years or younger; victim Jane Doe 1 and Count 8 PC 288 (a) lewd and lascivious act upon a minor; victim Jane Doe 2. Court minutes have more details including counts dismissed, sex offender registration and potential sentence. Sentencing is on 6/26.
