Sergeant Wells Faces Trial Delay

Sergeant Stephen Wells of the Kern County Sheriff’s Office faces serious charges including rape, assault with intent to rape, and burglary after allegedly entering a woman’s home and assaulting her — a case now delayed until July 14th due to a missing witness. The accuser reportedly had a past relationship with Wells, and he’s currently out on bail. Meanwhile, a separate lawsuit from former deputy Carly Snow alleges harassment and attempted assault by Wells — not the same victim. With a pivotal preliminary hearing looming, the legal process is just beginning, and the public is watching closely as this case exposes troubling allegations within the department.
