Yablonsky v. Ramos CA4/2
Plaintiff and appellant John Yablonsky was found guilty of the first degree murder of Rita Cobb. In September 1985, Cobb was discovered nude and strangled by a hanger in her bedroom. A DNA sample taken from her vagina was matched to Yablonsky’s DNA in 2009. Yablonsky was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. Yablonsky’s conviction was affirmed on appeal by this court in 2013. (People v. Yablonsky (Dec. 4, 2013, E055840) [nonpub. opn.] [2013 Cal.App.Unpub. LEXIS 8800].) Review was denied by the California Supreme Court in 2014. Yablonsky’s habeas corpus petitions filed in the state courts attacking his conviction were unsuccessful and he remained incarcerated.
