Mike Geniella, a longtime local reporter, spoke to kzyx about a letter from the Attorney General's office to District Attorney David Eyster, declining his request to recuse himself from the decision about what to do about former Ukiah police chief Noble Waidelich, who was fired in June in the midst of an unspecified criminal investigation.
Disgraced former UPD sergeant Kevin Murray could have been ordered to register as a sex offender. Records about one of his victims never found their way to the office that recommended his sentence, and DA never sent them.
March 4, 2021 Former Ukiah Police Sergeant Kevin Murray is scheduled to appear in Mendocino County Superior Court today, to be arraigned on information.
On January 26, District Attorney David Eyster filed a complaint against Murray, charging him with four felonies for crimes alleged to have occurred on November 25 of last year. The complaint says he entered an occupied motel room on South Orchard Avenue in Ukiah and violated the civil rights of a woman by intimidating her “under color of law.” Murray is also facing two charges of burglary for entering the room twice, and one of sexual battery for forcing the woman to touch his genitals.
