Guilty verdict in murder
It took less than a day for 12 members of a jury to find an Oakland man guilty of murder in the first degree Tuesday, June 13 in a Plumas County court room.
The young man was also found guilty of using a deadly weapon –a knife, to commit the crime, and the enhancement of attempting to conceal the crime by arson on a national forest during a governor-declared state of emergency drought.
Sheldon N. Steward was charged in murdering his best friend, Trevor Hominski, 20, on a camping trip gone wrong Aug. 20, 2015 near Mill Creek Campground at Bucks Lake.
One less scumbag. Good job Plumas County!
Thank you, Jurors! Thank you, D.A. Hollister!
Wait a second . . . why is the longest sentence in this horrific murder, about: “declared arson on a national forest during a governor-declared state of emergency drought”. Really poor reporting. Would the murder been less important if it had happened in a fire safe area?
Thank you D.A. Hollister and your team for getting justice for Trevor Holminski – Plumas County is lucky to have you!
