Prosecutors had announced in May 2018 that they would seek the death penalty for Borjas.
Shortly after being sworn into office last December, Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón issued a series of directives, including one that “a sentence of death is never an appropriate resolution in any case.”
Since then, prosecutors have opted not to seek the death penalty in at least two other high-profile cases involving Kenneth Earl Gay, who is charged in the 1983 killing of a Los Angeles police officer in Lake View Terrace, and Michael Christopher Mejia, an admitted gang member accused of killing a family member in East Los Angeles and then opening fire on two Whittier police officers, killing one and wounding the other.
