Note: I have been following the ins and outs of this case here on my blog for the past few years. Looks like Cimarron Bernard Bell of Whittier is going to be heading to California's famed "Death Row."

NORWALK – A Norwalk judge today sentenced a 37-year-old Whittier man to death for his role in a 2004 triple murder and robbery and an unrelated 2003 murder.

Norwalk Superior Court Judge Dewey Falcone upheld a jury’s recommendation that Cimarron Bernard Bell receive the death penalty.

The trial for co-defendant Briaell Michael Lee, 29, is slated to start in September.

Deputy District Attorneys Todd Hicks and Michele Hanisee of the Major Crimes Division prosecuted the case.

Bell was convicted on April 5 of luring victims Mario Larios, 23, Edgar Valles, 22, and Fernando Piña, 25, to his home through an advertisement in an auto sale magazine, then robbing and killing them. Their bodies were discovered on Jan. 30, 2004, inside a Mercedes Benz that had been left in a La Mirada parking lot.

Bell also was convicted for the Nov. 11, 2003, murder of Ineka Edmondson, 22. Edmondson, who died from three close-range gunshot wounds to the head, was one of defendant’s girlfriends. The two had partnered in a stolen-check-cashing scheme and Bell believed she was stealing from him.
