This sick SOB stays in jail. His partner is free on parole. Don’t go on the rec trail at night.

Jesse Carson

“Carson anonymously corresponded with local media in an attempt to taunt the authorities and the public about the attack,

Carson was 19 when he was enrolled in the Defense Language Institute. He for “reasons known to himself” and his codefendant, Jason Bland, planned to become serial killers, said Pacioni. The victim was a stranger to them both.

“They restrained her, then repeatedly stabbed, and slashed her. They taunted her with threats and promises of death. During the attack, the victim suffered multiple stabs to her torso and slash wounds to her neck,” detailed Pacioni.

Jason Blad, P.G. Recreation Trail Attacker Granted Parole

Recreation trail can be a dangerous place. Now an attacker that repeatedly stabbed a young lady there is about to be freed. Not right.

The California Board of Parole Hearings, represented by two parole commissioners, granted Jason Blad parole after 21 years in California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. In June of 2002, Blad was sentenced to seven years to life for attempted murder.

This was Blad’s Seventh Parole Board Hearing. The  Monterey County District Attorney’s office will request that  Gov. Gavin Newsom reverse the panel’s decision.

From the last denied parole story: The two men stabbed the woman 12 times and slashed her throat twice before leaving her for dead on the trail in November 2000. At the trial in Monterey County Superior Court, the victim told jurors she’d pleaded for her life and tried to get away, but the two pinned her to the ground and began stabbing her on each side.

Posted on by

Gang hits, knife fights, it just aint as safe anymore.

The gunman who Monterey police believe murdered a 28-year-old man on Cannery Row last month was identified Tuesday as Jorge Luis Mendoza.

The murder victim, Raul Melendez of Monterey, was followed from the restaurant to the Cannery Row Parking Garage on Wave Street at 1:40 a.m. on Nov. 23. He was shot multiple times. He was transported from the bloody scene to Natividad’s trauma center, where he died.

Monterey police also released the names of the men who were behind a double stabbing during a fight at the Blue Fin Billiards and Cafe at 685 Cannery Row.

Joel Robledo, 40, of Salinas and Frank Guzman II, 27, of Castroville, stabbed each other while fighting on Dec. 3.

Police described the two men as “rival gang members from Castroville and Salinas.”

Just because it’s not Salinas or Watsonville doesn’t make it any safer.

Jorge Luis Mendoza, 21, is wanted by the Monterey Police Department as the possible culprit in the killing of Raul Melendez, 28, who was shot Nov. 23 at the entrance to the Cannery Row parking garage on Wave Street.

Monterey police detectives say Mendoza is a gang member who most recently lived in Salinas. He’s currently on parole for assault with a deadly weapon and is considered armed and dangerous.

Melendez suffered several gunshot wounds and was transported to Natividad Medical Center, where he died of his injuries.

Monterey investigators also identified the men who stabbed each other Saturday at the Blue Fin Billiards and Café, as Joel Robledo, 40, of Salinas and Frank Guzman, 27, of Castroville. Both men were transported to Natividad Medical Center for their injuries.

Cannery Row Stabbings Tie Score

Both men got stabby and stabbed each other. No winner in this knife fight.

The double stabbing comes a little more than a week after a man was shot and killed in the Cannery Row parking garage. Hober said this is not an uptick in violence in Monterey and that police have no reason to believe the two incidents are related. The only commonalities between the incidents are time of night and location.

“I don’t think this is specific to Monterey. I don’t think there is an uptick,” Hober said. “I think that what’s happening is two incidents that happened close to each other, where it started in the bar venue and resulted in the violence.”

Roof Jumping Stabber Had Restraining Order Against Victim

Looks scared. So why was he at her house?

Matthew Huntington

Police say Tara Desousa, 50, and Matthew Kyle Huntington, 44, were dating, but according to a restraining order Huntington filed against her in November 2014, he claims she stalked and abused him.

“She is obsessed with me. She is mentally ill. She has others threaten me,” Huntington wrote in the order. “Tara is not (in) her right mind and is a threat to myself and my family.”

Monterey detectives believe Desousa, a petite blonde woman who worked as a server in Monterey, was stabbed to death in the bedroom of her Laine Street home by Huntington, a golf caddie at one of the country’s best golf courses, Wednesday night.

Weird Turn Of Events – Attempted Robber Gets Stabbed By Victim

The Hear-Old later released the name of the stabbed burglar as 57-year-old Pebble Beach resident Raymond Gutkosky.

A man who owns a house along a golf course on 17 Mile Drive in Pacific Grove told police that at 11:30 a.m. he returned home and found a man inside his house.

“The owner armed himself with a kitchen knife and a physical altercation occurred,” Pacific Grove police Cmdr. John Miller said.

The burglar was stabbed in the chest by the 54-year-old homeowner. He fled by jumping into a dark blue Buick parked outside and a 30-year-old blonde woman was waiting at the wheel, dispatchers said, and the two sped away.

The stolen Buick had a rear bumper sticker reading “Support the Sheriff,” dispatchers said.

Investigators suspect the burglar was a 50-year-old Monterey man. Four hours later, the Monterey man called firefighters to his home and told them that he had been stabbed in the chest and side.

A CalStar helicopter flew him to a Bay Area trauma center to be treated for serious injuries. The hospital listed him in stable condition Friday.

No Parole For Trail Stabber Jason Blad

Good.

Jason Blad, now 33, pleaded guilty more than a decade ago of attempted murder for the attack, perpetrated by himself and another Marine, Jesse Jay Carson. The two were students at the Defense Language Institute at the time of the attack. Carson was convicted at trial of the same charges. Both were sentenced to life in prison.

The two men stabbed the woman 12 times and slashed her throat twice before leaving her for dead on the trail in November 2000. At the trial in Monterey County Superior Court, the victim told jurors she’d pleaded for her life and tried to get away, but the two pinned her to the ground and began stabbing her on each side.

Tuesday, parole board members met at the California Men’s Colony in San Luis Obispo for Blad’s latest parole hearing, but denied his bid, according to California Department of Corrections spokesman Luis Patino. He will not be eligible for a parole hearing for another three years.
