FILE - This April 13, 2012 file photo, defendant Scott Dekraai, right, looking on as Deputy Public Defender Scott Sanders listens during a pretrial hearing in superior court in Santa Ana, Calif., during Dekraai's murder trial. Sanders was handling this, one of two of the highest-profile capital murder cases in Orange County when he realized a jailhouse informant in both cases was the same jailhouse snitch. He wondered if that could be a coincidence. After poring over thousands of pages of documents and listening to hundreds of hours of recordings, the Orange County assistant public defender has concluded that prosecutors and police have covered up a jailhouse informant program that systematically violates inmates’ constitutional rights.
