Aaron Vargas - Trial Continuance?

UPDATE 3/8/10: The hearing on the continuance was changed to this Friday at 8:30am. They're hoping the trial will only be continued to April 20th, and that the March jury selection dates will stay the same.


Here is an update about Aaron Vargas. The prosecution is asking for another continuance for the case to go to trial. Apparently, two of their witnesses will not be available during the time of the trial, wich was set for March 22nd. Here are words from Mindy, Aaron's sister:


"There will be a protest on Saturday, March 20th from 11am-1pm on the corner of Laurel & Main Streets in Fort Bragg (next to Town Hall). The Fort Bragg Whale Festival is happening that weekend, so the town will be busy. I am expecting the media to be there filming.

For all of you newbies, there is a Save Aaron online store where you can purchase pins, clothing, bumperstickers, and more! I just added new products. www.cafepress.com/saveaaron

It is especially important for Mendocino County residents to display Save Aaron merchandise so that the country will see (through the media) that we support Aaron. It would be great to get pics of people with the merchandise so that I can post them on the website. You can email pics to: SaveAaron@yahoo.com

The prosecutor has asked that the trial be continued. The defense opposes this request. There will be a hearing on March 19th at 9am. Aaron is not taking this news well. The trial has been continued several times and it sends him on an emotional rollercoaster. Please write to Aaron:

Aaron Vargas, Inmate# 71742
Mendocino County Jail
951 Low Gap Road
Ukiah, CA 95482

Thank you!"

  1. Thanks for keeping everyone uptodate. I will be there for the ruthless counts Aaron is looking at knowing full aware he suffered PTSD and this man had been controlling his life for years. Unjust and a waste of tax payers money when everyone agree's this man did not intend to commit murder.

    Would they treat our men and woman from PWPSTD. No they would place in in treatement to deal with the cause of PTSD and allow this young man to become a survivor. A healthy father, who just began his life when a perpetrator came back and Aaron snapped to protect his own child.
