State appeals court upholds ban on parole for 22-year-old Oakland murderer, but said the Legislature should reconsider the law on parole eligibility in view of research on the rate of brain development.
A man who was 22 when he murdered a cashier during a 2003 robbery in Oakland is ineligible for parole because he was over 18 at the time, a state appeals court has ruled, but it says the Legislature should reconsider the age limit in view of new research on youthful brain development.
In upholding Paul Murray’s life-without-parole sentence for fatally shooting Paul Bajwa, the First District Court of Appeal in San Francisco said Monday that the state was legally entitled to sentence adults — those over 18 — more severely than juveniles, a distinction the U.S. Supreme Court drew when it outlawed death sentences for juveniles in 2005.
