The former Sacramento County sheriff’s deputy accused of killing a California correctional officer is set to be arraigned in a jail courtroom this afternoon.
Chu Vue
So too are seven others accused along with Chu Vue of executing an elaborate plan to kill Steven Lo in south Sacramento as he was leaving for work last October.
Sia Vang, Lo’s widow, said she will feel “a lot of anger” when she sees Chu Vue in court.
“It’s in the court’s hand, and hopefully they can get this all squared up for everybody,” Vang said.
Vang told KCRA 3 Monday morning more than a dozen family members and friends are expected to join her in the courtroom to witness Vue’s arraignment in person.
However, she added she will likely leave court without getting much satisfaction.
“They will never bring back my husband,” she added. “You know, even if he’s found guilty, or anybody (is) found guilty, it’s never going to replace my husband.”
Police alleged that Chu Vue’s brothers — Chong Vue and Gary Vue — shot Lo to death. Chu Vue is accused of planning the killing.
Several other people were arrested as well for allegedly harboring fugitives.
