China strengthens death sentence review to better protect human rights

San Diego County DA Reviewing 100-Plus Cases for Potential Resentencing

“We felt, reviewing his record and his rehabilitation efforts in prison, and reviewing his petition, that the right thing to do was to ask the court to resentence him, and the court agreed with us,” San Diego County District Attorney Summer Stephan told NBC 7. Riviera s sentence was reduced, with a San Diego judge in light of Riviera s age and health condition, and his low risk for re-offending ruling in favor of the request. “I mean, residential burglaries are terrifying to the residents and we want to hold people accountable, but we feel in this case that, you know, serving 20, over 23 years in prison definitely was a price that was paid,” Stephan said. “It was accountability, but 100 years, like the judge agreed, was too harsh for the crime.”

In push to fix unjust and harsh sentences, 84-year-old San Diego man to be released on parole

SAN DIEGO  Most of the burglaries hit in early 1995, break-ins at Rancho Santa Fe homes. The thief made off with pricey pieces of jewelry. James Sotero Riviera was eventually arrested. In 1997, a San Diego jury found him guilty of a string of burglaries. Riviera already had a criminal record, one that stretched into Arizona and New Mexico. Convictions there, plus a prior one in Northern California, meant those local break-ins would come at a hefty cost under California’s three-strikes law. He got 140 years to life. Killers get less time. Riviera is now 84 and living in a San Luis Obispo prison. But within the next two weeks, he will be released on parole, with more than a hundred years shaved from his sentence. San Diego Superior Court Judge Jay Bloom agreed Monday to resentence Riviera to less than 28 years effectively time served.
