These are the 15 death row inmates convicted in Ventura County

(Editor's Note: This story was updated to include a statement from the Ventura County District Attorney's Office). Gov. Gavin Newsom said he will commute every California death sentence to one of life in prison without parole, calling it the most severe punishment he could lawfully impose and the state could ethically enforce. The governor, who previously issued a moratorium on executions, announced the decision on Nov. 5 – one officials said will mean the 548 inmates with a death sentence would remain in prison and not be eligible for release. "These offenders will die in prison but not by our hand," he said, in an open letter to Californians. Here are the 14 men and one woman convicted in Ventura County on death row: Jeffrey Aguilar: Convicted in 2013 for the Aug. 16, 2008, fatal shooting of Gurmohinder Singh as the 55-year-old businessman left a US Bank branch in Oxnard with $100,000. Tracy Dearl Cain: Convicted in 1988 of beating William Galloway, 63, of Oxnard, to death with a rocking chair and Galloway’s wife, Modena, 55, with his bare fists in 1986. Cora Caro: Killed her three Santa Rosa Valley sons in 1999. She was convicted in 2001. Douglas Dworak:

Financial instability exposed in Malibu mansion development

National newspaper details unraveling of project next to city’s skatepark. The development of one of the ritziest housing enclaves in the U.S., located right here in Malibu, appears to be in financial trouble according to the Wall Street Journal. The national publication specializing in financial issues and the economy published a scathing expose Oct. 30 on Scott Gillen, the developer of five multimillion-dollar homes called “The Case” located on Malibu Road, abutting the city’s new skatepark. The newspaper claims the $500 million project is on the verge of collapse amid bankruptcy filings, mounting debt, and a legal dispute with financial partners.

Malibu agencies outline storm preparations

At Oct. 27 El Niño workshop, officials discuss evacuations, utility protection and debris-flow risks, while Big Rock neighbors seek guidance for homes and vacant lots. For Malibu residents still recovering from wildfire and confronting erosion along the coast, preparing for winter means more than cleaning gutters and stacking sandbags. It means knowing whether a hillside above a burned property could send mud downhill, whether a neighborhood’s only access road will remain open, and whether the utilities that power a backup generator will keep working. Those concerns shaped the City of Malibu’s Oct. 27 El Niño panel discussion, where representatives of the Los Angeles County Fire Department, Sheriff’s Department, and Public Works Department joined Southern California Edison and SoCalGas to explain their preparations and answer residents’ questions.
