Victor Farias Faces Murder and Child Cruelty Charges

A judge has approved moving forward with the trial against Victor Farias Junior, accused of first-degree murder, child cruelty, and hit-and-run charges stemming from a March 25th attack at an east Bakersfield apartment complex. Farias allegedly stabbed Yolanda Rojo — mother of his two young children — in front of them, killing her instantly. The 33-year-old was arrested hours later in Tehachapi and is being held without bail. The children, aged four and six, witnessed the horrific act, adding profound trauma to the case. Farias’ arraignment is set for July 6th, where he’ll formally enter his plea. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
