H<\/span>ey Sacramento, look at who’s coming to a neighborhood near you!!!<\/p>\n

\"LeviRabon, Levi<\/strong>:\u00a0Rabon ‘s criminal history shows an escalating criminal pattern of burglary and drug abuse that spans over the past 30 years. In the summer of 2004, Rabon went on a one-man crime spree, burglarizing\u00a0 11 homes in less than\u00a05 months. \u00a0It wasn’t until his arrest in 2005 that the Sacramento County community in which Rabon resided, could rest easier knowing that this drug-addicted menace was off the streets.\u00a0District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n

\"JahmiRadney, Jahmi<\/strong>:\u00a0In 2000, Radney suffered a misdemeanor conviction for statutory rape of a minor more than three years younger than himself. \u00a0His conduct was concerning, but he was neither armed nor violent at that stage. In 2003, Radney was convicted of armed robbery. In that case, Radney\u00a0and an associate found themselves stranded roadside, without gas for their vehicle. The associate was armed with a small handgun. \u00a0When a Good Samaritan approached their vehicle to offer assistance, Radney and his associate robbed the man of $28. Radney\u00a0was placed on probation and served jail time for this offense. In 2005, he punched his girlfriend in the head, causing her to briefly lose consciousness in between kicks to her face, ribs, and arms. This conduct triggered his second felony conviction. In 2012, Radney was found loitering in front of a motel mid-day. Deputies found a loaded handgun in his\u00a0left pocket, as well as 14 individually packaged baggies of methamphetamine in his waistband. District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n

\"JerryRasmussen, Jerry<\/strong>:\u00a0In 1993, Rasmussen was stopped by CHP for driving recklessly and ultimately found to be in possession of several loaded (and unloaded) firearms as well as knives secured to his body with rubber bands.\u00a0 In September 1994, Rasmussen hog-tied and tortured two men he found on his property.\u00a0 He covered their heads, kicked them repeatedly, poured cold water on them and threatened to kill them with his gun. This went on for over 3 hours until a neighbor saw what was happening and called police. Just 10 days after this incident, Rasmussen came upon another man on his property and held him at gun point threatening to kill him. Yet another victim of Rasmussen was attempting to negotiate a U-turn in Rasmussen\u2019s driveway when he was met by a screaming Rasmussen wielding a shovel\u2014a shovel he then used to smash the victim\u2019s car windshield and threaten to kill him with. In 2012, Rasmussen came home to find that his front door had been kicked in and his home burglarized. Instead of calling the police (because he didn\u2019t believe that anything would be done), Rasmussen, armed himself with a .22 caliber pistol and laid down on the couch, in the dark, to wait for the burglars to return\u2014which they did.\u00a0 Upon their return, Rasmussen, without saying a word, got up from the couch and shot one man in the face then turned and shot the second man dead where he stood.\u00a0 Rasmussen took the gun to a neighbor\u2019s house and gave it to her hold\u2014telling her only that his house was burglarized, but not that he had left a dead man inside of it.\u00a0District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n

\"JohnRoberts, John Thomas<\/strong>:\u00a0Roberts committed his strike offense of residential burglary in 2011. While on probation for that offense, on January 26, 2013 he went to the home of his daughter’s mother. She asked him to leave because he was high on heroin. He did not want to leave and began tearing up her home, threw a lit cigarette at her face and eventually beat her with a hanger. He was convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence and ordered to undergo a batterer’s treatment program which he never did. In early 2014 he was charged with stealing a vehicle and allowed to proceed as a violation of probation on his strike offense for additional county jail time. \u00a0Four months after his release from jail, he was arrested for his current vehicle theft offense for which he received a 32 month prison sentence.\u00a0District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n

\"KevinRobinson, Kevin<\/strong>:\u00a0Robinson got an early start at living the life of a criminal, picking up two strike convictions by the time he was 21. He is a thief, a drug dealer, and a validated member of the Bad Ass Youngsters gang. Before his early release Robinson was\u00a0serving an 8 year prison sentence for committing a residential burglary. District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n

Rodriguez, Lishane<\/strong>:\u00a0Rodriguez is a convicted drug dealer with a violent past. On September 16, 2004, Rodriguez was convicted of robbery. Because a gun was used Rodriguez was sentenced to 6 years in state prison. On January 25, 2005, while awaiting adjudication of the above offense, officers executed a lawful search warrant on Rodriguez\u2019s residence. Due to the extremely dangerous situation, Sacramento Police Department deployed its Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) unit to clear Rodriguez\u2019s house. Inside, they found a firearm and ammunition as well as a “pharmacy” of illegal narcotics. Officers located a digital scale, narcotic packaging, and 80.00 grams of marijuana, 2.63 grams of cocaine, 9 MDMA pills and $2,000.00 in cash. Rodriguez also had a firearm in his vehicle. Rodriguez was sentenced to 3 years state prison for this offense.\u00a0Soon after being released from prison Rodriguez was convicted of domestic battery when he punched his girlfriend in the face several times. This victim was also a prostitute and Rodriguez was her pimp. She had been trying to “leave” the defendant and the lifestyle behind and make a new start. Rodriguez would have nothing of it. On October 11, 2014, the defendant went to Placer County to purchase 3-5 lbs. of marijuana. Rodriguez rammed the victim\u2019s car and brandished a firearm.\u00a0District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n

Rorrer, Gordon<\/strong>: Rorrer has 8 felony convictions and has served 6 prison sentences. His parole violations through the years are too numerous to count. He has 2-strike convictions and has been convicted of domestic violence. In 2005, two days after obtaining a restraining order aganist Rorrer for domestic violence, he returned to his victim’s home, kicked in her back door and forced his way into the residence. once inside, while she was trying to call 911, he threw her to the floor, dragged her by the hair and kicked her four or five times in the back. He broke the phone so she could not continue to call for help.-\u00a0District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
