@jazzie...what happened to cause your brother to be shot? Was there ever an arrest or trial. Sorry for your loss.
July 7, 2011 at 8:54 a.m.
Two people arrested, both got guilty verdicts. 1st degree murder. I was on the jury.
Aug. 3, 2011 at 12:28 a.m.
Juror, well lets hear the story. Who did it and why?
Aug. 3, 2011 at 4:31 p.m.
give me a break
Why don't you mind your own business?
Aug. 3, 2011 at 6:55 p.m.
— give US a break, this is the wrong forum to say such a thing. Homicides are a very public event in which society has the right to ask questions on what happened.
And this is a public blog for members of the same community to get a chance to ask them.

First off let me start by saying I am the victims sister and although this is a public website the information stays private, due ro the fact that this was a murder ... and unless you are the family you do not need to know the details... the only thing I will say is this my brother was a kind hearted great person known by all. And on july 19,2009 he lost hoa life to a cruel cold hearted person covered by a bandana and using hia weapon a gun ro end my brothers life the real reason to why this happend only God and the murder of my brother know my brother was not a gang member and the murder was although he claims not to be its only obvious the way things played off but thanks to the justice system and our great jurors they made the righr xhoixe bexause people like the person and people involved in my brothers murder do not deserve to be out in the street causing harm to others we can not play God and go around ending people lives I myself would like to know rhe reason behind this horrible event that has scared my family hia daufhter and all hos loved ones for life hope that now that you see ur begind bars with no freedom you can reflect to the things you dis and your stupid actions hopefully you repent one day bcuz only god will judge u

crystal hernandez, I'm happy to hear justice was served!
Oct. 13, 2011 at 9:31 a.m.
@ Jag yes the justice system and our great jurors helped out alot in the trial and justice is served although Nothing can bring ny brother back I am glad that these cruel heartless criminals are being put away to not harm others. Although I am no one to judge there is only one God and he will judge us al individualy one day I feel for his parents and possible kids he may have because they have no fault in what this persons choices where. Once again these are choices and he as an adult should have thought of what he was going to do before he did it. to this day there are questions left in answered and so much i would like to know but im sure they never will i miss my brother very much and believe he is in a better place jorge you are gone but not forgetten you remain in our hearts... We will always love you and hope to one day see each other again....

When a murder is tried in a California court it is THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA vs MR. OR MRS. MURDERER...being a resident of this state, I AM The people of California, and as such am ENTITLED to any information regarding court proceeding done on my behalf. Of course this does not include information that has been deemed CONFIDENTIAL such as juror information, juvenille information, grand jury indicments, etc. While I understand the family of Mr. Hernandez is NOT OBLIGATED to share information with me. As a citizen of the State of California, it is my RIGHT to know the circumstances and outcomes of crimes committed against MYSELF as a member of the class known as THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA. And as such it is my RIGHT to comment any way I see fit (within the guidelines of this blog) on any murder posted here.
Thank you.
I too am happy to hear justice was served for this family.

Crystal,
This information once a court verdict has been ajudicated is public information. I looked up this inforation on this crime and came up with the story. It isn't that big a story...well I know it is to you but the information is out there with a little investigation I found what you are trying to hide. Sorry for you loss and I know this is a big story for you but when you stated that because this is a murder it will stay confidential it peak my interest. Heal well.
Oct. 15, 2011 at 12:38 a.m.
@crystal, yes girl i agree with you 100%
@janna thanks for your sympathy and yes to the family it will always be a big deal......
Oct. 23, 2011 at 5:03 p.m.
Janna,
When i put this is confidential what i meant is im not going to get in detail and in depth of what happend because like you said "to you" it is not that big of story or whatever but with all due respect to me it is a big story. something that changed my whole life in an instint and if you can investigate go ahead obviously its information you can get ahold of but I am not going to begin to relive the whole trial and explain what happend because I rather not I never meant you have not right, so if you or anuone mis interpreted my words i apologize. All i meant to say is that it brings alot of pain to my heart to relive these moments but you have rights as well as we al do and are intitled to search as much information as you want. It is important for all to get informed about these type of crimes because they happen everyday in every part of the world and this story in specific touches me because I am Jorge Hernandez's sister. This is my reality but glad you got the correct information or the one you wanted. for the record when I stated " because this is a murder therefore it remains confidential" well I guess i just stayed stuck on what the attorneys kept tellling us during the trial, but yes the trial is over and it is an open to the public to research any information you seek or anyone seeks for.
Oct. 23, 2011 at 11:12 p.m.
All that I really come to do to this page is read over and over this story. Maybe it is not a good way to help heal, but it gives me comfort to know that people do interest on these stories. Idk just sit here an think I miss you jorge and love you very much the day your life ended and your heart stoppedg beating a piece of my heart went with you I miss you jorge, and you remain in my heart always. Love you big brother..

It's sad that family members feel the need to have to explain themselves or their family. I will never understand why anyone would reply to these comments.
Oct. 24, 2011 at 2:04 p.m.
@crystal, every word you said I compare to for the same reason that Jorge was our brother, it is sad to have to answer to people's questions or curiosity, of course they have rights to know, and yes its nice that people want to know the truth that lies behind these stories..though it brings hurtful flashbacks, this website will be a website I will maybe forever keep writing my feelings down for the same reason that I know some people are reading. I don't mind them reading my thoughts about Jorge because all I'm doing really is sharing a memory and not trying to erase my brothers name.

"may the wind always be @your back & the sun upon your face, & may the wings of destiny carry you off to dance with the stars"<3 beautiful quote;
i miss you brother. i still wake up every morning and walk to where u slept, hoping that it was a dream i was dreaming all along.....
