Gruesome case in Perris
The Times' William Heisel reports this incident on the roads of Perris over the weekend:
A man who drove home with a body hanging out of the back of his car after a traffic accident is scheduled to be charged today with manslaughter. Tony Martinez, 55, of Perris is expected to be charged in Riverside County Superior Court with vehicular manslaughter, hit and run, and driving under the influence, all felonies, California Highway Patrol spokesman Ron Thatcher said. Martinez pulled out of a roadside market parking lot onto Highway 74 near Perris on Saturday night without noticing that Nicholas Justin Campbell, 20, of Moreno Valley was heading toward him on a motorcycle at about 80 miles per hour.
