James Mallett, 43, was ordered to stand trial in the killing of 40-year-old Antonio Diaz in an April 2020 shooting.

OAKLAND — An Oakland man known around town as “Jesse James” allegedly stabbed a man in front of hotel security cameras in February 2020, then fatally shot the same victim weeks later, crimes that he was linked to by a poem found in his pocket, court records show.

One thing police didn’t address at the preliminary hearing was why Mallett wasn’t charged with attempting to murder Diaz sooner, despite what McCannon described as convincing evidence of his guilt. That count wasn’t filed until after he’d been arrested on suspicion of murdering Diaz roughly seven weeks after the stabbing.
