SAN DIEGO, Calif. — The man who shot and killed San Diego Police Officer Archie Buggs “execution-style” has been granted parole, according to the San Diego District Attorney’s office.
On Friday, the state Parole Board decided Jesus Cecena should be released after 36 years behind bar for Buggs’ slaying.
In 1978, Cecena was pulled over by Buggs, 30, for a traffic stop in Skyline. Cecena pulled out a gun and shot the 4-year SDPD veteran to death.
