OAKLAND — Weeks after an Alameda County judge shot down a plea deal that would have sentenced a man accused of three homicides to 15 years, the District Attorney announced she is moving to disqualify him from all criminal cases., hours after Judge Mark McCannon denied motions by both the prosecution and defense to recuse him from the case of Delonzo Logwood.
Price didn’t specify which of McCannon’s comments she was referring to, nor did she say which law her office will cite to disqualify McCannon. State law provides two options — flood a judge with disqualification petitions in a practice commonly known as papering, or file a singular motion with a much higher legal standard to forcibly recuse the judge for bias.
McCannon told Logwood, ““You can’t think an apology will make this all better,” and at an earlier hearing, called it one of the most lenient deals he’d ever seen.
