California Death Row Cases Part 1


Listen Later

Hello Dear Twisted Listeners! This week we are doing the cases of inmates currently on California's Death Row. This is a really interesting topic, mostly because California isn't big on handing out the death penalty, but even when they do, they rarely follow through on it (the last person put to death in California was in 2006, when the Governator, Arnold Schwarzenegger was in office.

Because it takes a lot to get the death sentences in California, you can bet that these cases are extra heinous, horrible, and wild, so get ready for some, as Diva would say, advanced level cases. We have a lot of bad men, and at lest one bad woman on this list, so tune in and enjoy (and don't worry, if you are anti-death penalty like we are, you'll be happy to know that death row in California is, at least at this point, pretty meaningless).

Cases Covered:
1. Alejandro Avila
2. The Sweetheart Murders
