Overview
- Contra Costa County Superior Court Judge Mary Ann O’Malley imposed a term of 95 years to life in state prison.
- A jury convicted McBride of murder, firing into an occupied vehicle, stalking, and using a firearm to cause death.
- Franklin had reported being stalked to Richmond police the night before the shooting, a response later criticized by family members and a former police captain.
- During the recorded 911 call near 29th Street and Rheem Avenue, Franklin said, “I’ve got my kids in the car,” and McBride replied, “I ain’t playing with you,” before the fatal shot.
- Officers located and arrested McBride later that week at a fast-food restaurant in Sacramento.
