FILE - In this July 5, 2017 file photo, Judge Thomas M. Goethals listens to the testimony of Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens during an evidentiary hearing for convicted murderer Scott Dekraai at the Santa Ana Central Justice Center in Santa Ana, Calif. Goethals is weighing whether Dekraai should be spared the death penalty due to a long-running scandal over authorities' use of jailhouse informants. Goethals is expected to rule Friday, Aug. 18 on whether Dekraai should remain eligible for the death penalty or sentenced to life without parole for killing eight people in a 2011 shooting rampage at an Orange County hair salon.
