Nice get! At least Kern still has a DA that will prosecute murderers, unlike LA.
the suspect is innocent. his estranged wife fabricated the story so she and her ex fiance could steal his car.
Yup ! Heather made up many stories, I talked to him the day before the arrest,
You sound ignorant! You just know what he told you. Well I witnessed it first hand. If you would like to see pictures I’d be happy to show you if he found me on Facebook. I even have a voicemail where he apologizes profusely for his actions.
I wish I could post pictures on here. You all sound very ignorant! Where you there when these acts were committed? Did you see them afterwards? I did! I have pictures. Want to see them then find me on Facebook and I’d gladly send them. Oh and I have not only a voicemail where he admits it and apologizes profusely but he’s done that as well in person! So unless you were there or right afterwards I’d stop commenting on what you do not know.
Nikki Simpson; I would be interested in hearing the recording. I’ve know the suspect since birth. If I heard him admit to this horrific crime, let him rot oh hell!
Can’t imagine what the family of the victim is going through. My thoughts and prayers go out to them
I’d very much like to see what pictures you have. And the recording.
Married and still deals with Ex-fiancé!? Wanted to steal a cheap ass economy car?! Sounds like real stable, upstanding citizens!? From Bakersfield? Wanted for murder?! Interesting!
LIKE I SAID, you want to see? You want to hear? Find me on Facebook!!!!!! Problem is- I’ve now been instructed to keep my trap shut. Maybe you should do the same since none of you know a damn thing and you just seem, for lack of a better word, IGNORANT!!! Maybe the family thinks it’s normal, BUT ITS NOT! How many women has he done this to you when are you gonna wake up and realize the common denominator and stop enabling.
Nikki aka Heather you do need to keep your “TRAP” shut and maybe clarify that you “witnessed” DV not murder. And if you want people to find you so you can “show” photos try using your real name. You might have better luck sweetly
Henry I’m not going to insult your intelligence because frankly I don’t know you. But my name is Nicole Simpson. Kind of ironic isn’t it. You can find me on Facebook I’m from Simi Valley currently living in Castaic.
Sounds like a pair of trash, low class losers!! The more of the similar low class continue to enable/excuse/allow/hang out with, the more it continues! Low life’s—birds of a feather chose their destiny!
100% truth right there at its finest
Heather Smith try speaking the truth since you like to throw the word IGNORANT around. While your at it correct the story that it’s not murder but domestic violence. You pretty much have said that in your last post. Try using your real name if you want people to find you on FACEBOOK.
