Why a former UC Davis student charged in deadly stabbings will head to a state hospital instead of a criminal trial. How California’s cattle industry is evolving with climate change.

UC Davis student heads to state hospital

, Distinguished Professor at McGeorge School of Law, explains why a former UC Davis student is incompetent to stand trial in deadly stabbings that took place in the college town. Carlos Reales Dominguez, 21, is charged with fatally stabbing 50-year-old David Breaux on April 27 and 20-year-old Karim Abou Najm on April 29, as well as critically injuring 64-year-old Kimberlee Guillory on May 1. Last week, a mental competency trial ended with Dominguez being ordered to a state hospital for treatment, and once rehabilitated he will return to Yolo County Superior Court for the criminal trial.

Cattle industry and climate change

Gas from livestock are the biggest producers of methane, the leading cause of dangerous greenhouse gasses. And while it’s a worldwide problem, cattle ranchers and dairy producers in California are working to evolve with the help of technology to be part of the solution. Joining Insight is Cody Nicholson Stratton, Chairperson of the California Cattle Council, to talk about how the industry has changed over the years and the challenges it still faces. We’ll also learn why the council is launching an educational campaign that paints the cattle industry as a positive resource in the fight against drought, wildfires and extreme climate change.
