Remember the Lords of Bakersfield?
My hometown paper made a big splash in January when it ran a big package on the "Lords of Bakersfield" after deputy District Attorney Stephen Tauzer was murdered. Turns out that ex-cop Chris Hillis plead guilty to the crime this week, saying he went into a rage when Tauzer admitted to having a sexual relationship with Hillis' son.

The story is in the Bakersfield Californian. Here's the post I did for LA Examiner in January about the Lords of Bakersfield and here's the Californian's Lords package. Also a bit about the paper's publisher getting the E&P publisher of the year award after the stories came out.
