Overview
- An SD County judge granted Andy Williams a resentencing hearing and sent the case to juvenile court, setting the stage for a new disposition process.
- Prosecutors have appealed, arguing Williams is ineligible because he received 50 years to life rather than life without parole.
- A juvenile court disposition could allow supervised release, depending on the outcome after the case is recalled.
- The state parole board found Williams unsuitable for release in 2024, citing concerns about his insight into the crime.
- Victims and survivors voiced opposition to release, while at least one former student supported Williams' rehabilitation efforts at the hearing.
