Governor Schwarzenegger Offers Rewards for Information in Two Unsolved Cases
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger today announced rewards for information leading to the arrest and conviction in a California court of the person or persons responsible for two unsolved cases in California.
The following is a brief description of each crime and the reward amount offered:
On May 7, 2009, 62-year-old Barry Sandberg and his wife, 60-year-old Carol Sandberg, were found murdered in their San Diego home. The $50,000 reward was requested by San Diego Police Chief William M. Lansdowne.
On December 4, 2009, 28-year-old Harinder Sanghera was murdered during the course of a robbery at the Gas and Shop in Modesto. The $50,000 reward was requested by Stanislaus Sheriff Adam Christianson.
Under the Governor's Reward program, 289 rewards have been offered since 1967, and 20 have been paid. The reward process is initiated when the Governor receives a written request from the chief of the law enforcement agency with investigatory jurisdiction over the matter. This request informs the Governor that (1) those responsible for the investigation have pursued all leads and believe, in their independent judgment, that a reward will help them in their efforts, (2) the crime is one for which a reward may be offered under California law and (3) the victims' families support the reward. The Governor's legal affairs unit processes the request and ensures statutory compliance. The Governor makes the final determination regarding the request.
Rewards may be offered for specified crimes under the California Penal Code and subject to statutory maximums. Rewards do not expire and are only paid if the information leads to the arrest and conviction in a California court of the individual or individuals charged with the crime.
