Court blocks mental health diversion for suspect in Santa Monica hate-fueled pipe attacks
A man accused of racially motivated attacks in Santa Monica, including an attempted murder, will face trial after the California Supreme Court declined to review a ruling that overturned a judge's decision to grant him mental health diversion. The court's decision upholds a prior ruling against mental health diversion for the suspect.
