Suspect In Stockton Bank Robbery And Deadly Shootout Back In Court Monday

STOCKTON (CBS13) - The only surviving suspect in the Stockton bank robbery that led to a chase and shootout with police was back in front of a judge today.

Nineteen-year-old Jaime Ramos faces 35 criminal counts, including multiple murder charges -- and could face the death penalty if convicted.

Ramos will appear back in court on September 15, according to San Joaquin County Deputy District Attorney Mark Ott. Prosecutors want more time to gather additional reports and test for DNA and ballistics in the chase that lasted 61 minutes and spanned 55 miles.

Ramos was arrested after allegedly using hostage Misty Holt-Singh as a human shield. The 41-year-old mother of two died along with two suspects during a gun battle with police. Stockton police said last week that Holt-Singh was killed by police gunfire during the shootout.

Ramos is facing 35 criminal counts, including multiple murder charges, and could face the death penalty if convicted.
No additional charges were filed in court today.
