After an appellate court overturned his prior murder and kidnapping convictions, the defense pushed for an August start, but the judge expects hearings to begin August 17th. Legal fireworks loom over the prosecution’s use of a DNA firm, accused by defense attorneys of creating a conflict of interest. The defense may also seek a gag order and exclude South County residents from the jury pool, given the case’s deep local impact. Garcia Torres, now 35, was previously serving life without parole, but the appellate ruling now separates the attempted kidnapping charges for a new trial.
