A judge rules there’s enough evidence to try defendant Brian Cooks for murder.
The 22 year-old is the man suspected of shooting nine year old Janessa Ramirez, and a Fresno judge has decided he will stand trial.
Cooks has pleaded not guilty to three felony charges – in connection with the death of janessa ramirez just under one year ago.
Police Chief Jerry Dyer says the shooting was as a result of a rivalry between Cooks (left) and another man – Isaac Stafford (seen right).
The preliminary hearing determined there was enough evidence to force Cooks to stand trial.
His bail is over two million dollars.
