BREAKING NEWS: Tony Lopez Perez to stand trial for Cori Desmond murder
As the plan goes, San Bernardino Deputy District Attorney Karen Khim is sharing with me some of the evidence presented this morning in the murder case against Redondo Beach resident Tony Lopez Perez.
We got about two-thirds through the interview when she had to run out for the meeting. What I've heard so far is just basically details on evidence we already knew, like exact times Cori Desmond was caught on surveillance video around Artesia Boulevard early on Feb. 15 and what she looked like after being found in a trench behind a snowy mountain road embankment. Her four witnesses were all detectives from the San Bernardino Sheriff's homicide unit.
Khim did say that, after the two-hour preliminary hearing, Perez was ordered to stand trial.
