KERO - Bakersfield Scripps

February 2, 2023 at 9:40 p.m.

Cedric Struggs, who has spent the last 41 years in prison on a murder charge under California's now-defunct Felony Murder Rule, was ordered to be resentenced and released. Struggs took part in a gas station robbery in 1980 where someone he was with shot and killed an employee. The law that got Struggs sentenced as a murderer was overturned in 2019. Kern County Judge Gregory Pulskamp ordered Struggs resentenced in the next few days, after which he will be a free man.

Topsy Farms: A Legacy of Love
Favourite places --- we all have them. Some places make you feel a little bit better when you’re there: more relaxed, more connected, more free to be yourself, maybe even more alive.

Chinese automakers redefine the car as a living space at Beijing Auto Show

The seemingly never-ending efforts of China's electric car makers to redefine the automobile went on display Thursday at the opening of the nation's largest annual auto show.
