Rollins to be tried again for Rodriguez murder
Rollins IV, whose murder conviction was overturned by the Sun District Court of Appeals in Fresno, faces a possible retrial. The 1992 verdict prompted tears from Rollins and protests alleging racism and jury misconduct. An appeals panel later overturned the conviction, citing issues in Kern County proceedings. Rollins, held in Stockton CYA, could be returned to Kern County for retrial with attorney Jim Fahey signaling readiness for a new trial.
