The Modesto Bee reports that former Stanislaus Sheriff's deputy Raul DeLeon took the stand and denied the charges against him and the case went to the jury for deliberations. While in Sacramento, the Sekhon & Sekhon political asylum fraud trial completed day 24 yesterday and will resume on Monday. The prosecution might rest its case by the end of next week, though the jury was told to be prepared for trial to continue into June.
