Carlos Dominguez Retrial Intensifies | Sacramento News

Carlos Dominguez’s retrial is back in session in Woodland, where he faces second-degree murder charges after a deadly 2023 stabbing spree that killed two men and critically injured a woman. Though the first jury deadlocked on most charges and acquitted him of first-degree murder, prosecutors now argue his cannabis use worsened his schizophrenia — a claim the defense fiercely disputes, backed by three medical experts. Witnesses including family members and close associates have testified, with Dominguez’s father taking the stand yesterday. The case remains centered on whether Dominguez’s mental health and drug use played a role in the violence — and whether justice can be served after a fractured first trial.
