A Solano County Superior Court judge sentenced a 39-year-old Hercules man to 15 years to life for his involvement in the February 2018 fatal shooting of a Vallejo man.
Shackled at the waist, bearded and clad in a striped jail jumpsuit, Daniel Anthony Street on Friday heard Judge Jeffrey Kauffman in Department 1 hand down the prison term, in accord with a July 17 plea agreement six days before his jury trial was to begin.
The judge credited Street with 2,425 days, or more than 6 1/2 years, in custody, ordered him to pay restitution, and fined him more than $3,000. Upon release from prison, Street will remain on parole supervision for the rest of his life, Kauffman said.
Street was linked to the Feb. 10 gunshot slaying of Daryl Huckaby, 47, a crime for which Costello Blackwell was convicted at trial on Sept.18.
While Street did not fire the fatal round that killed Huckaby, Deputy District Attorney Bill Ainsworth, who led the prosecution, said in a September that the law stipulates that if a person essentially aids and abets a killing, they, too, can be charged with murder.
“He (Street) is the one with motive and brought Blackwell in,” he said in a text message, adding that a witness, Teiquon Cortez, testified that Street “came to Blackwell’s home and then Blackwell is the one who killed Huckaby.” Another witness corroborated Cortez’s testimony, Ainsworth added.
Cortez testified that he was seated in a vehicle with Blackwell, 49, a previously convicted felon from Vallejo, when Blackwell shot and killed Huckaby, who was in an RV that later crashed on Tuolumne Street.
Additionally, court records indicate Street was in the area when Huckaby was killed, Ainsworth said.
