A Fresno family facing fear as the man accused of killing a 15-year-old boy was freed from prison. But now, the suspect is under arrest again for repeating the same crime that got him locked up.
Ricardo Rosas has never been charged with murder, but he does have a long list of convictions and a new case that's landed him back in jail.
Action News has been following Rosas for a couple years now, since police named him as the one and only suspect in the murder of 15-year-old Steven Humphrey. At the time, Rosas was in prison, but he got out a little less than three months ago. Now, he may already be headed back.
Tattoos cover his arms and his neck, the only portions of Ricardo Rosas we're allowed to show you from his court appearance Wednesday. The symbols outline some of the 25-year-old's history, his gang associations in particular. The markings in front of his family home in southeast Fresno tell a different piece of his history. A cross and flowers serve as a memorial to Steven Humphrey. In April 2013, police dug up the teenager's body in Rosas' backyard. But the Rosas family didn't build the memorial, and they can frequently be found right on top of the burial site.
"What I can't see is how they can put their table right there where they dug Steven up and sit there every day," said the teen's grandmother, Dorothy Essman, who lives just down the block from the Rosas house.

"But now, the suspect is under arrest again for repeating the same crime that got him locked up."
The way this reads, this bad guy gets out of prison, goes back to the same place, kills the same 15 year old boy he killed before, and is not arrested for doing the exact crime again.
Why, oh why, cannot they write: "But now, the suspect is under arrest again for committing a similar crime in a similar way that got him locked up before?" but as it is, the writer leaves it totally unclear whether the crime that locked him up was the murder, a domestic assault, or some gang related crime. . . another domestic violence case? WHAT? This is one of the most poorly written news stories I have seen in a long time. It leaves one completely at a loss as to what he did this time to get him sent up. . . SHEESH!
Did they let a high school intern write this article?
So maybe the question should be just truncated to: Why, oh why cannot they write?
“What I can’t see is how they can put their table right there where they dug Steven up and sit there every day,” said the teen’s grandmother, Dorothy Essman, who lives just down the block from the Rosas house.///
Because they’re worthless animals. But that’s just mho.
