FILE: In this file photo from Sunday, Feb. 12, 2012, San Joaquin Sheriff deputies search for human remains near a well on an abandoned cattle ranch near Linden, Calif. A federal judge in Northern California is considering an argument that San Joaquin County Sheriff Steve Moore was negligent for using heavy machines to excavate the well for the remains of murder victims. Joan Shelley, the mother of a 16-year-old girl who is a suspected victim of serial killers Wesley Shermantine and Loren Herzog a.k.a. the notorious “Speed Freak Killers,” said the sheriff's office assured her the bodies would be exhumed with care. Shelley said in court papers she was "shocked" and "horrified" her daughter's remains were dug up with heavy machinery. Shelley and two of her daughters are suing the county and the sheriff, saying the bones of 16-year-old JoAnn Hobson were destroyed and commingled with those of other victims.
