CALIFORNIA, USA — On Friday, Gov. Newsom announced three $50,000 rewards for three unsolved murders in California.
The rewards are for any information leading to the arrest and conviction for the murders of Tyler Dickson in Butte County, Jesus Sanchez in Ontario, and Iran Moreno in Pasadena.
"Under California law, law enforcement agencies may ask the Governor to issue rewards in certain unsolved cases where they have exhausted all investigative leads, to encourage individuals with information about the crimes to come forward," a statement from the governor's office says.
Here is more information about the three cases:
