Assemblywoman Esmeralda Soria (D-Merced) Applauds Governor's Decision to Stop Early Release of Convicted Killer

MERCED, CA – "Today, justice has been served in our community and a wrong has been righted," said Assemblywoman Soria. "We thank Governor Newsom and applaud his action to reverse the decision the parole board made last October to recommend early release for convicted murderer Rodolfo Romero. A man, who in 2010, brutally killed his wife in cold blood while his two young sons were sleeping in their Merced home."
