Convicted '70s Calif. killer: Don't send me to NY

A convicted serial killer sentenced to death in five grisly stranglings in California is fighting to avoid being brought to New York to face new charges in two 1970s murders here, saying he needs to work on his appeal more than New York authorities need to prosecute him. Rodney Alcala says he needs to stay on California's Death Row to work on his appeal ? especially because he represented himself in a sometimes surreal southern California trial last year.

Initially arrested in California in 1979!, he was found guilty twice in one of the California killings and had both verdicts overturned before his latest conviction last year. It came after a trial where prosecutors depicted him as a killer with a habit of sexually abusing and torturing his victims.

Alcala, now 68!, was convicted of strangling four women and a 12-year-old girl in California. He raped one victim with a claw-toothed hammer and posed several victims nude in sexual positions after their deaths, prosecutors said.

In 1980 Alcala was tried, convicted, and sentenced to death for Samsoe's murder, but his conviction was overturned by the California Supreme Court because jurors had been improperly informed of his prior sex crimes!

Sammy Mixson, 27, now of Central Avenue, appeared in Central Judicial Processing court in Jersey City today where his bail was set at $75,000 cash or bond on aggravated assault and weapons charges, including possession of a firearm by a felon. The charges stem from a Sept. 12 incident in which police alleged he and a coconspirator allegedly pointed a gun at a man in a courtyard of the Booker T. Washington housing complex, officials said.

Jersey City man who pleaded guilty in 2003 playground shooting and pled to lesser charge in 2007 felony murder is back in jail facing multiple weapons and drug charges

By Michaelangelo Conte/The Jersey Journal

A Jersey City man who shot a 9-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl in a city public housing complex playground in 2003 is back behind bars and being held on $225,000 in bail, officials said.

Sammy Mixson, 27, now of Central Avenue, appeared yesterday in Central Judicial Processing court in Jersey City, where his bail was set at $75,000 cash or bond on aggravated assault and weapons charges, including possession of a firearm by a felon.

The charges stem from a Sept. 12 incident in which police allege that he and a coconspirator pointed a gun at a man in a courtyard of the Booker T. Washington housing complex, officials said.

The former Booker T. Washington resident also appeared in CJP last week on narcotics and weapons charges stemming from a Nov. 3 incident and his bail in that case was set at $150,000 cash only, officials said.

Last night, Mixson's attorney, Adrienne Edward, said Mixson "maintains his innocence and denies the charges."
In 2004, Mixson pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, admitting that a bullet he fired in 2003 passed through the arm of a 9-year-old boy and the leg of an 11-year-old girl in a Booker T. Washington playground, officials said. He spent from September 2004 to February 2006 in prison for that crime.

Mixson had also been charged with felony murder in the Oct. 20, 2007 fatal shooting of Antwon Hill, 23, in a parking lot across the street from the Montgomery Gardens housing complex.

In connection with the homicide charge, Mixson later pleaded guilty to hindering prosecution for discarding the alleged murder weapon, Hudson County Prosecutor Edward DeFazio said.

A second man was also charged in Hill's homicide and he was acquitted at trial, and then murdered in April 2009 in Booker T. Washington.

Police said they believed Hill's death was one of several killings at that time that were the result of a rivalry between groups at Montgomery Gardens and Booker T. Washington.
Hill was in prison from Sept. 21, 2001 to June 29, 2004 on convictions for two counts of drug possession with intent to distribute within 1,000 feet of school property.
