- Share via
The murder trial of a former Santa Monica teacher accused of killing a retired Glendale accountant has been set for April 27, 1993, in Shasta County Superior Court.
The lengthy delay was sought by Stanley Alan Hershey’s attorney, John J. Suter of Redding, who has two other trials pending in the Northern California court. Hershey’s trial is expected to take two to three months, Assistant Dist. Atty. James Ruggiero said.
Hershey, 48, is accused of killing Gordon T. Johnson, 62, who disappeared Oct. 15, 1989, while traveling from Oregon to Southern California. Johnson’s body has not been found.
