Cedeno was set to stand trial, but was released on May 9 because "of the lack of a speedy trial." A person charged with a felony, is entitled to a speedy trial which means a trial must take place within 60 days of being charged. Cedeno's case was far beyond the 60 day mark, and as a result the entire case was dismissed. Court records show he had five different attorneys during the nearly four month stalled case..."

Shame on @CityBellflower 😡👎and their corrupt parking citation infrastructure
Shame on @CityBellflower 😡👎and their corrupt parking citation infrastructure & their $57 dollar "PARKING TRAP" on Beach street in front of St Bernard Church.
Drive by sometime if u don't know what I'm talking about. DO YOUR JOB & FIX IT. Ignorance is NOT an excuse.
There's a SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL for freakin "admin law judges" who RUBBER STAMP DENY legitimate parking citation appeals. They DON'T even read the appeal. & around here the citations start at $60.They also won't sign their name. U R SCUM 👎😡
#Bellflower #LosAngelesCounty
A street in front of St Bernard church in @CityBellflower has 10 signs, 10 poles:
7 say "NO PARKING Sat/Sun";
The other 3 say
"NO PARKING Friday."
Normally u put ALL restrictions on the same poles. But here they expect u to walk the ENTIRE STREET & read EACH sign.
So I pull up to the sign that says "no parking Saturday or Sunday" and today is Friday. I park & go to church & come back & find a $57 citation on my windshield.
So I look at the sign again & it still says "no parking Saturday or Sunday" and it's still Friday I walk to the next sign & says the same thing & the next sign says the same.
There's 10 signs : seven of which say "no parking Sat/Sun" ; three of which say "no parking Friday" so if you miss one of the three (out of 10) you get a $57 ticket.
Why don't they put ALL the signs on the same pole like most municipalities do & according to Uniform Code?
Because it's intended to trap people, like a speed trap at the bottom of a hill. Or they added some later in a lazy manner & are too lazy to fix it ?
The uniform code for parking signage actually requires the MOST CLARITY POSSIBLE. This is a BIG FAIL at a visitor's expense. Or it's a success if it's intended to be a money maker for Bellflower.
And why does Bellflower outsource the parking appeals to Tustin, a whole different county, to an alleged judge who rubber stamps a denial of the appeal and won't even sign his/her name ? Maybe because nobody actually reads it ? No actual judge ?

On a Friday I parked in front of a sign in Bellflower CA saying "No Parking Sat/Sun".
On a Friday I parked in front of a sign in Bellflower CA saying "No Parking Sat/Sun". When I returned I had a $57 citation. I walked the block.
There are 8 signs:
6 say "No Sat/Sun".
2 say "No Fri 6-11"
IS this FAIR? Or deceptive(or just lazy planning). Why CAN'T they put all restrictions on the same sign pole?
