On July 29th, 1985, at approximately 0900 hrs, Officers Bunch and Officer Bridges stopped a suspected drunk driver. The driver was taken into custody without incident and transported to AIB (a processing center for drunk drivers). Suspect Ordonez had a long history of violent behavior to include drug convictions and armed robbery.
Once at AIB, Officer Bridges secured his gun in the gun locker and Officer Bunch remained armed. As they began to process the suspect, the officers realized that they needed additional paperwork from their patrol car. Officer Bridges retrieved the paperwork while Officer Bunch remained inside of AIB. While inside AIB, suspect Ordonez attacked Officer Bunch and disarmed him. Officer Bridges heard a gunshot and ran back into AIB. Officer Bridges saw the suspect standing over Officer Bunch and holding a revolver.
Unarmed, Officer Bridges attacked the suspect and a fight for the gun ensued. During the struggle, suspect Ordonez was shot and killed.
Officer Bunch sustained a single gunshot wound and was the sixth San Jose Police Officer killed in the line of duty.
Jereh Lubrin, Matthew Farris, and Rafael Rodriguez, former Santa Clara County correctional deputies, are shown at their preliminary hearing in February 2016. The three were convicted of murder in the jail beating death of Michael Tyree in 2015, but on Aug. 1, 2022, a state appellate court reversed their conviction, citing revised state law that invalidated the legal theory on which they were convicted.

The Kidnapping and Murder of Brooke Hart
The Lindbergh baby kidnapping of 1932 had a profound impact on the nation in several ways. Charles Lindbergh was one of the most famous people in the world. If even his child could be abducted from a guarded, secluded estate in New Jersey, how could any average parent feel secure? During the 1920s and 1930s, a series of ransom kidnappings terrified the public and created a climate of fear that was very real. In 1933 alone, there were eight high-profile abduction cases nationwide, including William Hamm, from the beer producing family, who was freed after paying $100,000 ransom. In addition, the Great Depression had radically transformed the social, economic and cultural heart of the nation. These were hard times in America. The nation’s streets were full of idle, desperate men, unable to provide even the most basic needs for their families. Though the Prohibition Era had ended in 1933, it helped to create an atmosphere of anger and lawlessness that dominated the media’s attention for a decade. Almost every day, newspapers were filled with stories of criminal mayhem. Crime was up; confidence was down. And worst of all, things didn’t look well for the future

In the tranquil city of San Jose, California, Alex J. Hart ran a profitable retail business, called L. Hart and Son Company, for generations. The Harts were a true American success story; a Jewish immigrant family who came to the United States with nothing in their pockets and through hard work and sacrifice built a new and better life. The youngest son, Brooke Hart, 22, was the heir apparent to take charge of the family business. He was young, ambitious and expected to become the leader of the next generation of Harts. Unfortunately, his family’s wealth also made him a prime target for kidnapping. In November 1933, Brooke Hart was abducted in broad daylight just yards away from his father’s store.
It would be the first step for a city’s rapid descent into madness and murder. Read more HERE
