Davis Stabbings News Today

Hundreds of community members joined with loved ones of Karim Abou Najm Monday evening to dedicate a bench in his honor and to mark one year since the UC Davis student’s death.

'This past year has been rough. But at the same time, I have been supported by just so many amazing people,' Maria Breaux, one of the victim's sister, said.

The murder case against a man accused in a string of serial stabbings in Davis last spring is moving forward.

The criminal case against a former Northern California university student accused of several stabbings is on hold.

On the fifth day of accused Davis killer Carlos Dominguez's competency trial, a doctor hired by the defense testified that Dominguez shows symptoms of schizophrenia.

In Yolo County Superior Court on Tuesday, those who knew Carlos Dominguez before his arrest in May for a series of stabbings in Davis described unusual behavior that concerned them and even scared some of them.

The 12 jurors who will decide if accused Davis serial killer Carlos Dominguez is competent were chosen on Monday at the Yolo County Superior Courthouse in Woodland.

A competency trial is scheduled to start on Monday for the man accused in three stabbings in Davis earlier this year.

A California jury will determine the mental competency of a former university student charged in the stabbing deaths of two people and attempted murder of a third.

A court-appointed doctor ruled Carlos Reales Dominguez is not mentally competent to stand trial for three stabbings, but jurors will have the final say.
