Cabrera loses bid for new trial in teen s murder
HOLLAND Holland man Juan Sandro Cabrera has lost an appeal for a new trial for the gang-related murder of 14-year-old Troy T.J. Wells.
Cabrera, 20, who is serving a life sentence at Bellamy Creek Correctional Facility after being convicted of Wells murder in 2019, filed a motion last year with the 20th Circuit Court for a new trial, arguing his lawyer during the trial did not provide effective representation. In late May, a judge denied the motion.
An Ottawa County jury determined Cabrera shot and killed Wells in the hallway of the Hampton Inn hotel in Holland Township just after midnight on Feb. 16, 2019.

DETROIT (AP) Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel s former law partner has landed a job in her department after working for more than a year as a part-time contractor on the Flint water prosecution team.
Chris Kessel was hired as an assistant attorney general in mid-March and reports to Fadwa Hammoud, solicitor general and leader of the Flint water team, spokeswoman Courtney Covington Watkins told The Associated Press.
Watkins said Nessel was not involved in the hiring decision.
She noted that the attorney general has stayed away from the criminal side of the Flint investigation while representing the state in civil lawsuits related to the city s lead-contaminated water in 2014-15.
