Placer County Superior Court sentenced 65-year-old Joseph Victor Foster to more than 75 years to life for the 1992 first-degree murder of an 85-year-old retiree in Weimar. The victim was beaten, stabbed, and shot in his home, which was then set on fire. DNA evidence from 1992 linked Foster to the crime. Foster pleaded guilty on March 30, 2025, after being transferred from Wasco State Prison. He was already serving time for three other Weimar-area homicides and a 2006 kidnapping and rape in Modesto. According to the Sacramento Bee, Foster is now convicted in four Weimar-area killings. Yuba County detectives arrested 39-year-old Marcus Aaron Daniels of Olivehurst on a murder charge in connection with a fentanyl overdose death of a jail inmate on September 8 at Yuba County Jail. Evidence indicated Daniels introduced the fentanyl. He was booked Monday with bail set at $1.05 million and is scheduled for arraignment in Yuba Superior Court. The Sacramento Bee reports Daniels had prior jail bookings for drug possession and parole violation.
