Ridge was serving a life sentence for two second-degree murder convictions from 2004 until 2019, when a change in California law led to his release from jail. Those convictions stemmed from a quadruple shooting in Oakland that occurred — coincidentally — exactly 20 years to the day before Ridge allegedly raped the woman in Concord.
Police said at the time that the motive appeared to be related to a rivalry between gangs from Oakland’s Milton Street and Ghost Town neighborhood. Ridge was released from prison in November 2019. Jones remains incarcerated in Corcoran, where he’s serving a sentence of life without the possibility of parole.
