Cordoba, a previously convicted felon, is accused of the Feb. 4 fatal shooting of Jimmie Richardson in Vallejo and later fleeing to Peru.
Using a semi-automatic firearm with an extended magazine, he allegedly shot a 27-year-old man 25 times, yielding a dozen wounds to the victim’s head, with other bullets riddling his neck, torso, a hand, and lower extremities.
Shackled at the waist and legs, clad in a striped jail jumpsuit, William Bruce Cordoba sat at the defense table in Department 23 while forensic pathologist Dr. Arnold Josselson, on the witness stand, offered his opinion on the autopsy performed Feb. 5, 2013, on Jimmie Richardson. During the morning proceeding, Deputy District Attorney William Ainsworth showed Josselson several autopsy photos. The doctor, rendering an opinion on the autopsy performed by Dr. Susan Hogan, said blood on Richardson’s head was so plentiful that it obscured some of the head wounds, and not all of them were fatal.
Afterward, Ainsworth called retired Vallejo police detective Sean Kenney to the stand, who said he discovered, after the shooting report, a burning Nissan Altima on Farragut Avenue in Vallejo, not far from the Napa River It was unclear if Cordoba set the fire. In her cross-examination of Kenney, co-defense counsel May Mar, also of Redwood City, continued to press Kenney aggressively with questions about facts of the case based on his reports.
