Testimony continued this week in the trial of Varinder Singh, who admitted to the 2022 stabbing death of his sister-in-law in Santa Rosa but claims he acted in self-defense.
The Press Democrat reports Singh told jurors he feared for his life during a family confrontation, though prosecutors challenged his story, pointing to the 37 stab wounds inflicted on the victim.
The trial follows years of legal delays regarding Singh’s mental competency, with neighbors expected to provide further eyewitness accounts of the struggle that spilled into the street.
