The accused Stockton Serial Killer appeared in a San Joaquin County courtroom Tuesday in a hearing that lasted all of 15 minutes, never turning to acknowledge the family members of victims, prosecutors say, Brownlee shot and killed.
Natasha LaTour was homeless and addicted to meth and lingering in a shadowy part of Stockton next to train tracks around 3 a.m. when a stranger approached, his clothes seeming to hang off him, and fired eight or ten shots at her.
For the first time since additional murder charges were filed against Wesley Brownlee, the suspected serial killer appeared in court on Tuesday in Stockton.
A cousin and friend of an Oakland man shot dead last year said they were stunned when they learned the killing was linked to an alleged Stockton serial killer.
