Sentencing of a former Ukiah police sergeant has been delayed amid a small protest in front of the courthouse. Last month, Kevin Murray pleaded no contest to one count each of witness intimidation and false imprisonment. Murray was charged with burglary, sexual battery, drug possession, rape and oral copulation before the deal. On Wednesday, when sentencing was supposed to occur, it was delayed to a later date to be determined with no clear reason given. The same day, a handful of protesters appeared outside the Ukiah courthouse to protest the plea agreement, demanding a full trial and prison time for Murray. If the plea deal stands, Murray could receive up to 24 months of probation instead.
