PALM SPRINGS, Calif. — He gunned down two Palm Springs police officers and tried to kill a half-dozen more before digging in for a grinding 12-hour standoff.
On Monday, Riverside County jurors needed less than a day to convict John Hernandez Felix of first-degree murder in the 2016 shooting deaths of veteran officer Jose Vega and his rookie partner Lesley Zerebny along with six counts of attempted murder in the wounding of the officers who rushed after their fallen comrades.
